The issue is that people have gotten used to being able to put things on the internet for free. Unfortunately for people involved in selling sex, there are many laws that make hosting their content relatively expensive. Each piece of content uploaded needs to be moderated by someone to confirm it’s not something that runs afoul of the law, this is unscalable, and thus the classic SV playbook doesn’t apply.
In fact the more popular a service gets, the more expensive it becomes to run, on an almost exponential scale. Meaning there’s an inflection point where the service won’t be able to profitably add more customers.
There’s a reason such a service hasn’t sprung up… no matter how you run the numbers there’s not a good, safe way, to both allow a backstage-type service and promise on penalty of criminal charges that some form of (child) abuse won’t take place on the platform.
