Looking for Pinterest Communities? Pinterest recently decided not to continue with them and remove the feature – folding any existing communities back into Group Boards. We’ve updated this post to share the latest from Pinterest for you.
Where did Pinterest Communities go?
In early 2019, Pinterest announced the following about Pinterest Communities going away on this link.
After testing Pinterest communities as a positive place for sharing ideas and getting a lot of feedback from Pinners, we’ve decided to take the best parts of the feature and fold them into group boards.
Your group boards will live on your profile, and you can share ideas with community members there, by saving and creating Pins like you would on any other board. Every group board has an Activity tab, where you can see what people are saving to the board and leave comments for just your group board collaborators to see.
If you created any communities, you’ll now “own” that group board. This means you can control the board’s settings to make it public or secret, and to allow more people to join.
Are we surprised?
Not really – Pinterest is a search engine. By testing Pinterest Communities, Pinterest was trying to be a social media channel too. Most people don’t really use Pinterest that way so it was a bit of a stretch. But hats off to them for trying something different.
