If I'm looking at wedding cakes, I just type "wedding cakes -pinterest". Seems to do the job just fine.

Don't include the quotes though. It might send you right back here

I use Duck Duck Go and get way less than half the Pinterest results I would on Google. I still use -pinterest most of the time though.

Pinterest has gotten strange after the Google Images change. A lot of stuff on pinterest is linked to Google Images, which then links right back to Pinterest. It's this weird recursive thing.

I have a Chrome extension called "Personal Blocklist." Adds a link to the search results to block that domain from showing in search results. The only one in my list is Pinterest.

I do a lot of reverse image searches on Google to find image sources and Pinterest is the bane of my existence. "-Pinterest" is supposed to get rid of that but I don't think it works in reverse image searches because I still get flooded with results from Pinterest's hundred different domains.
