I made an Instagram account for the first time a few months ago, the first two weeks it had zero ads. It was just long enough to draw me in, if it had had that amount of ads when I signed up, I might have chosen a different platform to display my computer generated art.

On the plus side, it has been very cool chatting with people from all over the world doing the same things, and getting compliments (like, actual comments, not just likes).
