I saw this in a comment thread on here about a week ago and it changed my life: go to your home feed and hide every ad you see (I select "blurry or hard to read"). Keep going until you thin them all out and it seriously keeps your home feed ad free, though you will have to do this periodically as the ads will start to come back. It's been a week for me and I still haven't had ads so it does stick for a while!!!! Best hack ever. Sincerely, an avid Pinterest user💌

Absolutely loved this! Little tip: I have ad blocker on my Google Chrome so all of those annoying ads on Pinterest don’t show and instead it’s a blank space. It makes me realise though how many ads and sponsored posts they have on there because sometimes the page is full of spaces! But yes love Pinterest for another form of inspo rather than using Insta for example 💕
