I'm curious to know how Onlyfans has managed to thrive in the era of online free content and piracy.

I mean, why would anyone want to pay for pron when it is readily accessible or available?

And how has Onlyfans content somehow managed to escape being pirated (or has it being ripped and shared online too)? If it is being shared or is readily available, do most people not know they can also source this content free?

I suppose I'm just curious to understand the pron ecosystem and how onlyfans content has somehow circumvented the perceived pitfalls of piracy.

Re B: personally, I do a lot of surfing on reddit and twitter for porn (and FA and e6 and...), and follow a lot of (irl, for this topic) people, curated over the last decade+; when I'm on the hunt for something/someone new, and they have an OF or other monetization system (donations/wish lists/etc notwithstanding), I lose all interest, regardless of their visual/kink appeal. I want to be seeing people that do this content because they actively enjoy it, not as a 'side hustle'. I want, I need those moans and squirms and cries of pleasure, to be genuine. And for a few of them, I want to be able to comment or say something to/about them (and possibly receive a reply), without the expectation of it turning into a financial transaction.

I'm one guy in a sea of horny people, but that's my take. I want horny because horny, not because ulterior motives.
