This is a throwaway account and the account name is just serendipity from the Correct Horse Battery Staple password generator. Eerie but it's true.

Unlike Patreon, they do not charge only once a month but continuously as subscriptions renew, as pay-to-view videos are purchased etc. A hundred dollar monthly Patreon bill is much more noticeable than a few bucks every few days.

Also, it's possible to tip on posts but the minimum tip is five dollars.

The sum of these policies mean using Onlyfans requires real careful budgeting and I do not think most people are good at budgeting especially at budgeting for porn... So I wouldn't be surprised if we were to read stories about people getting bankrupted by this site -- obviously most people would not be particularly forthcoming about getting bankrupted by porn...



When OF started getting popular I was curious to see how much it was. Needles to say any inkling of paying for anything sunk below the flow when I saw people were charging $20 a month. Plus...it's a nude photo or video. How in the hell is that worth that price today? Pornography online has been free for basically 3 decades.


Sites like OF thrive on whales. People spending thousands per month on a creator usually can budget.
