OnlyFans says it received "assurances" from its banking partners that will allow the platform to continue allowing sexually explicit content.

Well, many have already begun to migrate to Fansly. I guess the greed was written on the walls.

It's hilarious how companies make a stupid decision then redact it. Sorry hun, too late now.

 

[YuliApp]

Exactly. I guess they seen massive drop in users already now. I moved many fans to own site after it was announced.
I've decided to not give another greedy idiots a try and will be focusing on own site and solutions.

So looks like they started banning accounts. Mine just got banned. Going to start my own site called OnlyGingers. ATOT will get free access for 6 months.

you forgot the rule #1 of religion, only that religion counts, which you were born into. Other religions are even worse than nudity. Like boozaah, go to hell worse.

i have read an explanation online, posted by an account on reddit, so be aware that the following may contain Bullshit(tm):

the reason was never a ban; it was the OF allows credit card users to set up bank-to-bank direct payments between channel owners and fans, which cuts into he card providers profits.
Card companies started enforcing TOS and OF doing a press release saying they would ban porn was just them showing the belly and proving to the card companies that they are willing to play ball.

what happens next is to be seen.

That makes zero sense, sites provides multiple payment methods all the time.

There is definitely a power play behind all that and probably will come back one day or another. But if we stop losing fans because of the fear, thats good. Over 50% of fans join for multiple months discount and when they do not trust it will be around, they won't.

Kind of related...ACLU is ~ calling for an investigation into Mastercard’s policies discriminating against online sex workers.

then they will collapse as a company

 

[BarkingGhostar]

This is a bummer in that I wanted to make a lot of money on OnlyFans with AI generated hotties selling ceiling fans, floor fans, fans on a stick. Of course, all of the AI generated hotties would be butt naked. Still, sex sells, has always sold, and so why not my AI hotties in the buff?

 

[Lost_in_the_HTTP]

Will they still do it with all the Polits and Moms and Academics clamoring to show their asses (literally)?

 

[Matisxo]

I was surprised by the move too, but apparently it’s all about keeping payment processors happy. Reminds me of how platforms in other regions, like those focused on sex Việt Nam, tend to operate more quietly to avoid this kind of issue. The whole thing shows how even big platforms can be vulnerable to outside pressure.

 

[YuliApp]

They will not, just wall posts on free accounts or free wall posts. Something they have been trying to do since ever. DMs, and sales will be still ok.

 

[YuliApp]

It will actually help creators, just most are too dumb to understand it.

EDIT: i see someone reopened old topic lol. Anyway, yea they restored it back, just those who do not follow the unwritten rules, are not promoted as well like those who do.

 

[Red Squirrel]

I had to look at the OP date, I assumed this was an april fools joke lol.

 

[YuliApp]

No it was real back then, but, as always misreported, as people have attention span of a hamster. What they were trying to do is clean up the walls (at least free posts) and free channels to have it safer and eligible for promotion and well CC companies do not complain so bad. Which is how it should be used in the first place, as a social network with fair profit sharing, no ads and clean monetization structure (and no agency between celebs and fans but that is whole another story).
It didn't come to that because, well everyone threatened to leave, and few competitors came out of it so they chickened out, but those who understood the principle enjoy the fruits so to say.
