"Only Fans". Am I the Only One Not Joining?

[+ Lance_Navarro]

I'm surprised I haven't seen any other posts about this so far, but the Only Fans site seems to be really popular amongst sex workers right now. While many friends have taken to it as a way of making some extra money off of exclusive content, it just doesn't interest me at all. I would rather utilize my energy toward what I know and enjoy, rather than feeling pressured to constantly creating content to keep my "fans" intrigued and subscribing. Curious others thoughts and feeling about this.

hungyoungbrit and dillonandersonx have been keeping me very busy lately.

Same feeling.

 

Much like guys who are pushy with their Amazon Wish Lists, it all feels a little too much to me. Escorts who feel the need to monetize everything about themselves will soon realize that stepping over dollar bills to get at nickels is a bad business model.

Often the content is poor or uninteresting. It often appears to be done by people that have little knowledge of or ability to film. So I think the novelty won't last. Moreover, people see the content elsewhere.

as a client, I have no plans to join. I find all I need from rentmen, m4rn, and this site, without paying until I actually hire.

 

And @Lance_Navarro is on my list to actually hire, but (much like Tristan Baldwin), he doesn't get out to Michigan much, and I don't travel much, so that's a vague future.

Same here. What is the point of joining with all the porn for free available on line.

I don't mind paying to watch a specific type of guy. I find a lot of free porn boring and monotonous as hell. The studio-staged stuff really makes my cock go flaccid. The younger guys are attracted to onlyfans. Some of the younger escorts are wannabe film makers, and I think some of them are very talented. Why not be creative and make money from the enjoyment of creating something?

I tried to join Derek Atlas's but it wouldn't take my credit card for some reason. Haven't tried since.

Good point. Whenever I hear of such a case, I may consider signing up. But so far all I heard about is solos, and that is a gender I am not interested at all.

And by the way, porn still works pretty well for me. The available diversity is endless.

Nope

OnlyFans is not for me - but part of that is that I already have my website that I update several times a month with new videos.

 

I can say I could really do without the announcements on Twitter from OnlyFans. If I only cared that you have a new fan ....

[TruthBTold]

I think that there might be more of a success if vids were a bit more professionally done so that you could actually see the content. It certainly does not have to be the same as studio content but at least see things and hear the dialogue. It can add so much to the fucking.

I think its awesome - I'm not going to get paid to make the porn I want to by many studios through Onlyfans I can film whatever I want with whoever I want. Its made my sex life a lot more interesting and I think I'm making pretty great content if I do say so myself, without charging a huge amount for it and get 80% of the profits, and the cut is totally worth it for not making a website and doing all credit card processing BS. I think sites like OnlyFans will be the future, except not OnlyFans because they don't require proof of age and that shit is gonna get them shut down soon¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It's certainly cluttered my Twitter Feed...

Consider it a blessing in disguise.

Except that's the extent of the verification required. Guess they didn't want to bother with the recordkeeping requirements.

Saw this, can't speak to the veracity of it...

I can certainly understand your desire to film exactly what you would like in the manner you would like. In deciding whether to join cites, are the vids on the OnlyFans site as short as many that have been downloaded off the site are? For instance there may be vids that are seconds or short number of minutes long. It seems like a lot of money to pay to watch a vid that is 45 secs or 1 minute 2 secs even if it is of a guy I really, really would like to see. Ya know what I mean?

Hmm I think there is a lot of variety in how people make them. Some people are making many super short videos a day and others put up longer ones less frequently. Most of my videos are 2-6 minutes long - not long enough to release as a full video for sure but long enough for most people to use in the way god intended

As a customer it is tempting if a model or performer I like promises exclusive content that is not shared on other social media platforms. It seems to be stealing Patreon's thunder lately. I'm holding back on joining for now (unless I get super horny and the hormones take over :cool:)

But those nickels can be so shiny

I quite like Only Fans. Having subscribed at one point to Austin Wolf and Nick Capra I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of content they put up and how often they did. It isn't found anywhere else and it is homemade, which for me is a huge turn on. It's real and uncut. Some performers are out of their minds with what they charge for a month subscription, anything over $15 to me is way too much unless the updates are daily and lengthy.
