OnlyFans to ban porn

in a desperate move to try and get to an IPO-able state, OnlyFans will be banning sexually explicit porn this Autumn

Seems bad



Details:
This morning this was published about their finances: https://www.axios.com/onlyfans-investors-struggle-9cc92523-6607-40ad-9893-4175e7966b52.html
Abruptly started pushing their porn-free app earlier today: https://metro.co.uk/2021/08/19/onlyfans-takes-the-back-door-into-app-stores-with-nudity-free-version-15118842/
And like an hour ago they announced the ban


Maybe their finances are so bad they're gonna be gone by Autumn regardless

poo

So with only fans you do see bacon bits then?

this is like a year on from when PornHub banned general uploads isn't it. I mean at least that protected sex workers' content and income. this is absurd. the site is a punchline for porn content. and will really hit people who depend on it by shoving things up their bum etc

When you say sexually explicit porn, does that include OnlyFans creators posting nude pictures of themselves?

Good time for someone to set up something for the mass exodus. Who wants to go in on this, how difficult could it be?

JamesTC

People should just post pictures of them sticking stuff up their bum to the Oscillations section here as that sounds a bit like a fan.

I've never used OnlyFans but I thought it was almost exclusively adult content.

I'm looking forward to this. My business of writing letters to my fans describing my anal insertions has really been in the doldrums since these porn sites started. I'm barely pulling in 4k a month.

McDonalds to ban selling burgers?

Only Fans without porn is like Cookd'd and Bomb'd without being able to suggest that members of the England cricket team are paedophiles.

Butchers Blind

I'll be uploading all my POV arse porn for you to buy before the end of September. If you add extra tips I'll write your name on my butt cheeks.

QuoteOnlyFans said it had taken the decision "to comply with the requests of our banking partners and payout providers". It did not give any information about which companies had made those requests.

Kind of mad that self-created porn is the red line for banks when you consider what else they'll invest in.

QuoteBut such videos will now be banned, in a decision OnlyFans said it had taken to "ensure the long-term sustainability of the platform", it told The Independent.

Hmm, not sure this is going to do that.

Pope to expel all Catholics from Vatican City.

Bear to expel all shit from woods

This is great idea, because frankly there needs to be something out there doing what Patreon does and maybe a bit less.

mothman

Kickstarter to restrict activities only to people needing help getting their motorbike started.

Midas

OnlyFans meets a sticky end?

I have conflicting thoughts about sex work, parasocial relationships, banking partners, wanking partners, etc. Can I be arsed to think about things and form coherent ideas? Nah. I'm going to pretend writing that I have thoughts is the same as thinking.

Nudity isn't sexually explicit. Well that was my excuse the last time I got caught with my knob out in Waitrose.

I've seen plenty of testimonials about how OF work has helped people during the pandemic, both creators and subscribers. It's a massive kick in the teeth to their core demographic, however much they obviously don't want it to be their core demographic.

Bake'd n Bomb'd bans bald brothers.

Tory Party to ban public school twats.

Business plan step 1: convince young women in a poor job market that it's #empowering to create and share explicit content online

Business plan step 2: double down efforts during global pandemic when nobody has a job

Business plan step 3: ban profitability of said content, which still exists online for all eternity

Business plan step 4: pull off mask and it was A Male Tech Dickhead all along

This really is catastrophic. A key part of OF gimmick is personal brand and putting out a bit of content online then luring people pay to see more, so brand building means spreading it all as far as wide as possible, over different outlets. Contrary to what actual porn sites were doing at the time, OF business model seemed to be to encouraging creaters to have as little control over their material as possible.

But decentralised free market, personal choice, no one put a gun to anyone's head, etc.

I know fuck all about it, but it's just a paid porn site isn't it?

What manner of investor would say "yeah, love your stuff, the money you make and all that, but err maybe consider gutting your entire business model and I'll invest". No I won't, and no you shouldn't.

Madness.
