When you are looking for Social Media platforms to use for art purposes, whether professionally or recreationally, it is really important to consider laws and copyright. Reading the Terms & Conditions (and privacy policy) is especially important for ensuring you agree to the rights of how the social media platform is requesting to use your work. While most of them will only request the right to publish and display your work, it is important to make sure you aren’t giving away rights that you don’t agree with, especially when money is involved.
