I am pretty sure that the payment processors giving you the choice of banning horny stuff or getting the boot would not look kindly upon “a separate branch with different branding”. OnlyFans could exist, sure, but like every other horny service ever it had a built-in time limit. When Visa/MC/Apple/etc notice how much porn money you’re doing, then the axe falls. Maybe you continue without the porn. Maybe you fold up. Either way all the pornmongers leave and look for a new way to get paid. In a few years they will be doing this again. Patreon could have built OF, in theory, but this would require them to have more than the vaguest interest in actually building anything new. I’ve been using Patreon to get paid for my art since a few months after they launched and this is not a thing they have. I’m not sure they even actually have anyone who can do backend development any more. Mostly they just fuck up the front end every few years.
