It’s ultimately following a general online trend here. YT and other platforms were similar in that regard. From just random people uploading things for the fun of it, to an over-commercialization that turned everything into clickbait and how to make your content be the best for monetization purposes. In regards to porn I think the great Pornhub purge also killed a lot of interest of the few remaining people who did this for fun. Not everyone wants to personally expose themselves via ID for verification purposes.
That’s not the issue…
I watch way more porn than any boyfriend I’ve ever had and more than my husband and have zero profit motive.
Therefore I will not elaborate.
Once upon a time, people uploaded their personal porn for free. Now everyone and their mother have an OF.
So frustrating, but it makes sense. “I enjoy doing this, so why not also make money at it?”
But then you get those people mixing with the “I don’t like this at all, I’m just in it for the money” actors and it’s this whole icky mess.
I miss the days when people just did it for fun.

Shit, I forgot about that. Goddamn FOSTA/SESTA Christian misogynist lawmakers.
