I dunno. Until the recent changes, Instagram has been very very much a net positive for me. I've connected with artists I love, learned how to improve my work, and paid a particular woodworker north of $1k for a couple pochade boxes I absolutely adore. Without Instagram, my life would be significantly less fulfilling.

Caveat though: I'm very good at clicking 'not interested' for content that isn't right in my particularly desired niche.
