Everyone gets a trophy

And when they search, Instagram feeds them what Instagram thinks they should see. You can't look through Instagram without an account and Instagram will characterize your "tastes" based on what you look at. So you can find stuff on there but it won't solely be based on what you're looking for. It's likely fine for someone like an editorial art buyer, though.

Buyers usually search using keywords, not randomly.

I didn't suggest the results would be random. I said the results are heavily shaped by what Instagram has decided you want to see. And by what will get the most revenue for them, of course.

You realize I was telling a joke. I knew I should have put in a smiley.

Well ... sometimes is IS about the chimp:

The comments about the chimpanzee civil war in Uganda are the funniest thing on the internet today

WAR. WAR NEVER CHANGES.

I say we give the chimp a trophy.
