OF was originally designed not for adult content, but just sort of another Patreon. I’ve been thinking about starting a Patreon, but I think it would be funnier if I started an Only Fans since I make educational content.

do you, or anybody that you know, use Only Fans as if it were Patreon?

    The only people who I know that do are people that are paid by Onlyfans to do so. To keep their image “Not just porn!”. I’ve never seen anyone there who isn’t there to make adult content.

    Whether it started that way or not - it’s now de facto a porn site. I think your idea is funny, but you’re not going to get many subscribers compared to patreon. Most people don’t want an onlyfans account because of the stigma. After all, if you post an update, are your subscribers going to want to have to explain to their wife/husband/SO that the email notification they got of a new post isn’t what they think it is?

    I’ve been thinking about making an only fans for firearm content. Framing it as “this would be CENSORED and REMOVED anywhere else!” all for the most lukewarm readily available information.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if firearms were already banned under the TOS. they almost banned sexual content, but I think that was just somebody getting caught copying and pasting TOS from somewhere else

    A couple of primarily YouTube-based music artists I follow made OF pages before the adult influx and still use them. It works great since that’s what it was designed for.
