Like pinterest but without the ads or algo or mommy blogger tone. Feels like how Tumblr used to feel. I find so many cool things. And it’s great for practical use of organizing stuff I find around the web.

one day i was on the work computer and i wanted to find more Fruits Magazines and came across dozens of pdfs on are.na!!! it's catered towards design and architecture students it's the loveliest tool as a casual internet user. it's self financed with premiums (no ads) plus it's minimalistic and easy to use - it organizes pictures, websites, and pdfs into these sections called channels. there is no algorithm it's purely based on hunter and gatherer vibes i started using it recently and have found countless channels of historical zines, 90s/2000s perfume ads, bare bone websites built with just html, old blogs, and so much more. i think perfectly imperfect and are.na are proof that the internet is well and alive!
just attached one of the channels i follow it's a collection of vintage Japanese advertisements and graphics :*)

Never ever been back to pinterest since, can write as many notes as you want, no ads at all and all the content is actually inspiring and can lead to beautiful wormholes where you forget what you even started looking for 5 hours ago. only thing is that it can be a bit harder to find general topics, ur kinda forced to deep dive if u wanna find what you want.

If you love hunting & gathering online then this is the spot.
kind of a mix between tumblr + pinterest. I'm obsessed
feels very artist/design focused but I think any creative person would enjoy it.
you get a certain amount of use for free – but I pay for it and it's worth every penny to me!!
i found a student discount code too! use "CURIOUS" for 50% off

Actually I have another hater take. Sorry but I do judge you if you use this (or any other AI chat bot because apparently there are others?) and treat it as a source of truth.....very strange behavior. I thought we all thought it was dumb but I now hear people reference it's use in common conversation/at work as if it's not weird? Why are you all feeding the beast? Can we please use our brains? Use it or lose it, baby!
