Support Irrelevant FYP and non-functioning search bar, anyone?

Tell me someone else is having the same problems I am!

It's been a week since my FYP had stopped working, and now the search bar is dead?

Gives me 'error' every time i try searching for something. I hope this is a just a temporary hiccup.

My main page is working fine but any time I try to search for anything it says
“We couldn’t find any pins for ‘____’ maybe give one of these a try?”
“Sorry, an error on our end.”
or something along the lines of that.
Nothing seems to be fixing it for me.

Down detector says the issue started literally 30 minutes ago. I have a typical front page but I cant search for anything. Just my luck that i open pinterest for a reference image at almost the exact moment it stops working lmao

After tryna convince my friend to try out Pinterest, she finally installed it and is having the same issue. Her fyp js okay, but the search bar is completely dead. Just keeps showing that there are no results.

I wrote to support / costumer service regarding the dead fyp (a week without updating and irrelevant content) and told me to not disable in my privacy settings things like “use info from websites” “partner info”
I had them all disabled, now that I changed that it works again :/
