It's funny to see this people complaining about losing their cash cow.
In all honesty, Kudos to them for milking those crazy amount of money off the platform (and the people).
But in all seriousness: 1. one can't seriously believe that easy money will always be this easy and abundant 2. competition drives the prices down and fighting the stigma on sex workers drives the competition up.
I'm not being judgemental or anything, it's just that the whole argument does not make sense, at all.
And btw as soon as something stops being a subculture, people like Bella Thorne will start showing up. It's sad, but happens in every space/environment.

Yes, but that totally misses the point. The problem is that the pictures (presumably) weren't as advertised and so OnlyFans lowered the price ceiling for everyone to reduce future losses. The complaint isn't that people don't pay, but that the plattform stopped allowing high paid work. And in all honesty, it is a bad way to handle the situation. Pulling posts with a high number of complaints, holding the money for a few days or only setting a limit for new accounts would've been a superior solution by far, at least in my opinion.

Right, that's my confusion too. Why not just hold creator revenue a bit longer and then make chargebacks during that period their liability?
- kpmcc 6y ago“One can’t seriously believe that easy money will always be this way and abundant”. Idk man have you heard of the federal reserve? Money will be easy and abundant for those at the top, and dear and capricious for the disempowered.
- collyw 6y agosex workers - in this case there was no sex and very little work.
- kpmcc 6y agoPiss off.
- Pfhreak 6y agoThere's presumably quite a bit of work. Just like twitch or YouTube, to be successful is a huge amount of labor beyond what happens on the set.
- nickthegreek 6y agoMaybe you should familiarize yourself with the modern definition of a sex worker. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_worker https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_worker
- timwaagh 6y agoI feel like this sort of definition doesn't serve any purpose beyond some political correctness. In the sense of the definition, I have been a sex worker (I programmed dildos once). But it doesn't feel that way at all.
- hippodou 6y agoThis is ignorant. Please educate yourself.
- bluntfang 6y ago>1. one can't seriously believe that easy money will always be this easy and abundant as with all black market activities, like the oldest profession, the money is always easy and abundant. It's always there. But restricting it consolidates the power away from the actual workers to an intermediary, historically this has been violent male pimps.
