Wow, can't wait to know what you think!

I've been looking for a Pinterest replacement for a while now. Tired of the ads, promoted Pins, AI-generated images, decreasing quality of search results. Just read about image clipper @currents.is in @tynanpurdy.com 's blog on @pckt.blog. Intrigued! Looking forward to trying.

Perhaps I'm mistaken about Currents being like Pinterest? Or at least how I use Pinterest (I don't upload images to Pinterest, but save images that I find online).

I have also installed the Currents browser extension (I'm using Chrome), but it seems to just be a link to my Currents account e.g. I can't use it to save any images. Or am I using it incorrectly?

The extension currently works by right clicking an image on a website and clicking on "Save to Currents" option. But thank you for pointing out it should work also by clicking the extension icon for the page itself, that will be implemented for sure!

Ah ok! I didn't realize one could do that in Currents. Perhaps add that to your user documentation? I'm worried that people are going to try out this early version of Currents & be discouraged, leave and not come back.

This is a really fair point and we should definitely create user documentation where these things are explained very simply. Thank you so much for the suggestions!
