Pinterest Is Waving Farewell to Its Like Button

Pins users have liked will be moved to a new, private board called Your Pinterest Likes

It’s the end of the line for Pinterest’s Like button, which will be phased out “in the coming weeks,” giving the social network’s Save button—formerly the Pin It button—a more prominent role.

Writer and content strategist Kim O’Rourke bade farewell to the Like button in a blog post Friday, saying that Pins users have liked will be moved to a new, private board called Your Pinterest Likes, which can only be seen by the user who liked the Pins.
