That sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. OnlyFans as-is struggles with accountability, appropriate age, and verifiable consent. Imagine that with a decentralized system of enforcement and accountability.

I mean, someone made 4chan and its even worse copies. There's certainly someone out there who is amibtious and dumb enough to do it.

With the fediverse aversion to paywalls and ads, I don't know how someone could make any money from it.

Wouldn't it just be advertising access to your self hosted drive full of feet pics on Lemmy or Mastodon?

takes notes

I think I've found my career. Have server, have feet, want money...

[โ€“] Tja@programming.dev 1 points 1 week ago

Keep in mind rules 1 and 2 still apply

And that person justifiably won't be trusted and the site will get hacked or just disappear after a week

I tried to launch OnlyFeds but messed up my marketing and now I'm just facilitating a side-gig for a bunch of government agents.

wtf is this i thought u were joking !?

"We're good on opsex."

My jokes are like a federal agent in that they get lucky in strange and unexpected ways.

[โ€“] ImgurRefugee114@reddthat.com 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

"Wow these demographics are wild... My social media platform OnlyFeds is completely flooded with preteen girls and violent anarchists... wtf?"

At least I've got the market cornered when it comes to horny weirdos with an entrapment fetish.

The hard part about OF isn't the platform. It's payment and moderation. See the disaster with Steam and itch.io. It's pretty hard to get common payment processors on board with NSFW stuff. And when you got that down you've got to make sure you're not distributing CSAM or revenge porn.

There's always lemmynsfw for promotion. Not sure about an actual site though.

OnlyFans' purpose is to make money from your actions. The Fediverse is the antithesis of that. It's run by donations, not corporations. Therefore, it will not exist.

[โ€“] optissima@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 week ago

Reddits' purpose is to make money from your actions. The Fediverse is the antithesis of that. It's run by donations, not corporations. Therefore, it will not exist.

Seems like faulty logic
