OnlyFans has become like Facebook for babes looking to sell pictures and videos directly to their fans. The next trend will probably be VR sex dolls.

Its already started various VR porn sites are popping up all over the place and then onto the dolls etc like you say.

They’re obviously on the way to repositioning themselves as a “respectable” platform, home to fitness coaches, DJs, comedians and influencers. There’s a sex purge coming, as there was on Tumblr (Insta and Twitter have been clamping down too), and if I were a SW, I’d have an eye on moving somewhere like AdmireMe.

Not sure about that myself. But OF are definately trying to sweep sex workers who made it the success it is today under the carpet as they chase the Celeb money

They did that already. They stopped promoting adult content a long time ago and removed any reference to it from their website. If you believe OnlyFans themselves, adult creators are a small minority on there nowadays.

Yep your spot on Bigglesworth, they’re doing it to chase the Celeb money as I’ve already said, especially after Bella Thorne joined OF

I don't know what these 'legislation changes 1 April' are.

Possibly referring to the Onlyfans terms of service changes ?

Its definitely the revised T&C's and all they have mainly done is make them clearer, the big things they've cleaned up is around who's responsible for what and also the rules around models using a corporate entity i.e a company to represent them, think the rules have always been there just not clear and they definitely are clearer now. If you're doing you own page like a lot of the models its pretty much as you were, its where someone does the page your behalf i.e a company its changed slightly.

This is what creators have been complaining about:



Paragraph b is the one ringed here, but some are more concerned by paragraphs c and e. Paragraph c means that b applies even after someone has left the platform and paragraph e states that once material has been uploaded a creator no longer has the right to be identified as the author of their own content.

However looking at the terms today I see that paragraph e has been substantially revised, only though it only just came into operation. It now say that the paragraph "does not affect in any way your ownership of any intellectual property rights in your Content".

Maybe this significant revision will make the new content ownership rules more acceptable and prevent any further people from leaving.
