    Perhaps the best bookmarking service available! BUT it isn't really an alternative to Pinterest for people looking for a social bookmarking service or for a social image boarding service. If you're just looking for a personal bookmarking service, then it's the best.

    Cosmos: Curate your universe vs Pinterest Comments
    winged
    Positive

    This is the most like Pinterest — you have boards/collections, can follow other people (either totally or by collection) and it suggests similar images below the one you're looking at (AI-assisted, iirc -- definitely not algorithmic in the popularity sense, as sometimes the content has a superficial similarity but isn't what you'd expect — I personally like this as it doesn't lead me back to the same stuff I've seen a million times). Typically a little more artsy on one end, and a little more nsfw on the other (as it doesn't ban adult content) than Pinterest, with no ads except the occasional link to fancy products in the newsletter. As more people find it there's getting to be a greater diversity of the stuff in the middle (eg, text posts, drawings, regular clothes, etc).
