Good. More power to them. Why should they do it for free? Because we’re entitled to it?
Besides that, they post exactly the same kind of content for their promos that the exhibitionists posted. You can see plenty of nude women for free on Reddit, just like the old days. The only difference now is that they also have a platform where they can sell more specialised content for anyone buying. Oh no, the horror. Enshitification is when sex workers have more power, apparently.
So it seems to me like what people are really complaining about is women having the audacity to not just give it all away for free, instead of just some of it.
The OP didn’t complain so wtf are you on about? Calm your tits it’s an observation.
Found the american!
This might shock you, but everything isn’t about money.
The issue that where you could once go and see people that did it just because they wanted to its now mixed in with / overpowered by by people that want to make money.
No one is arguing anyone is entitled to anyone else’s naked body. But I don’t think there is anything wrong with having a preference for wanting to see people who are naked because they want to be, and not because they want to earn money.
Not to mention all the evil / sexual exploitation that comes up once money is in the equation.
I’ve been a member on a website that’s quite well known in my country for over 15 years. It’s like adult Facebook where people post nudes and it’s all free.
Recently however peoole have more and more started using it for advertising their OF and what I find funny/interesting is how I can tell most of these profiles simply by looking at their pictures as they always have this certain “onlyfans look” to them.
I’ve never used OF myself but the feeling I get from these profiles is that it’s way too obvious that they’re doing it for the money. There’s a completely different vibe to someone’s profile who just wants to show off because it’s exciting to them.
If there’s a pink stick coming out, its 100% onlyfans.
That fucking pink stick has ruined so many otherwise good videos.
For me, the first telltale sign is showing face. The second is the colorful background.
Explain more, what is this pink stick? I’m out of the loop.
90% are sex workers but you’re right. Mods should ban any account that has external links meant to sell something. Gonewild was about having fun and now it went to shit like reddit.

There is r/nofans
There is amateur content on lemmy? :-)
Go into settings turn on NSFW content…
I don’t how “amatuer” it really is but is too much of distraction when I all I want to do is browse Linux subs
Some of it is a little too much, browsing all. I think I once saw an account with a dude and a very ugly sex doll.
Everything is just a grift now so not surprising
This is more a side effect of having to monitize your hobbies to afford to live
Honest work don’t buy anymore and even if it does pay, then prices on everything are still too high for “middle” existence.
I heard there was a time in western world when a shoe sales person could house and feed a family on one income though.
Some how the country is richer today but you can barely make it on two mid grade incomes.
Yeah, I’m echoing the sentiment.
I ain’t mad at anyone making money as best they can in the system we’re stuck in.
But it shouldn’t be everywhere. Some communities/subs are about people just sharing that they feel like, no ulterior motives at all. If that’s not what you’re doing, you shouldn’t be there
it’s supply/demand. there’s much more cameras and people online than 10-20 years ago, so the supply is plenty. people paying for this content is much more mysterious to me. why would I ever do that?!
Paying, in the exact context of this topic, is to feign a legitimate connection with the performer. Whether you know it’s fake or not, direct interaction feels better. General examples of meaningless connections could be a celebrity answering your AMA question, could be a food company acknowledging your complaint, could be a car company noting your taste, could be a vibrator in a OF performer’s pussy matching the cadence of your tokens, could be a stripper listening to you cry in the vip booth. We are humans and we have silly feelings getting in the way of logic.
For the broader porn topic, paying is something you might do for appreciation of the content from particular sources or to maximize access to content not readily available by torrent. Or for addiction to novelty. I’ve thought about it because the hub/tube sites have shitty search algorithms that don’t do 100% keyword inclusion while pushing trending uploads that are either 90 second OF/cam teasers or overly abusive scenes.
Tag for users that link to OF or not perhaps?
Enshittification has ruined everything.
EnshittificationCapitalism has ruined everything.FTFY
Every transaction requires 5 different parasites to feed on… It is for your own good.
Call me old fashioned but I really miss being a hoe (respectfully) for the sake of it. Then again I hate transactional relationships so OF and the like is a total mood killer.
On the other hand sex work is work so by all means get what you need to get by / thrive.
By all means, we have nsfw lemmy and gonewild without OF ads. Knock yourself out.
If I was on Reddit, I would have said Rip DM.
Meh. I see both?
There’s a reason the original reddit community banned sales pitches, and took themselves off /r/all.
Fish gotta swim, birds gotta eat
Tiger got to hunt
Bird got to fly
Man got to ask himself “why, why, why”
Tiger got to sleep
Bird got to land
Man got to tell himself he understand
People making content for NSFW subreddits makes sense to me now that there’s good money to be made.
I didn’t really understand the motivation before when so many people made regular content for internet strangers for nothing. Especially when so many of the comments are so sleazy and rapey.
I’m one of the people still posting quite high cuality content of myself online for completely free (I’m a guy) I do it because I’m exhibitionist. I like being seen in minimal clothing in public as well, this is just a variation of that.
It wasn’t for nothing. It was to get off on it. Which made it more attractive than those doing it for money.
It’s just hit me. Reddit is gonna start putting stuff behind a paywall, this will 100% be porn and OC creators might get paid, OF style, cause so many “advertise” on Reddit…why not cut out the middle man? Or I’m bonkers.
I would prefer it that way if it meant they were all professional and ensure proper age vetting, but it seems like even that is lost.
