so like what pinterest used to be/aspires to be? fun!

Yes, and without ads and without investors. I really like what they wrote on their front page https://are.na. Four full time and one part time person run this software.

I recently started using Zotero for research and that is super. But this is more like a public facing mind map.

I pay for this service with an educational discount because I really like what they are doing and I find it fun and useful. There is a free limited use version.

Looks like you can see user channels without signing in. OK, so if you look at just one of my collections, make it Visual Mega Dump, over 15K images to tickle your optic nerves:
