You may have heard of , the membership app popular among Gen Z which allows fans to pay to see content from their favourite performers.
What separated the website from other late 2010s tech properties chasing their piece of the creator-economy pie, after all, was that OnlyFans famously allowed users to monetize sexually explicit content.
In at least one instance, Substack has that a fellowship recipient publish weekly over six months; a spokesperson confirmed that recipients of Pro deals are asked to publish with some minimum frequency—which seems to limit the supposed writerly freedom of the platform to that of, well, a more traditional staff writer role.
However, there is no legal requirement or regulation to compel OnlyFans to scan content on its app for such material.
At age 15, Sasha sent explicit photos to boys on Snapchat, but things spiralled when one of her photos was leaked.
That made it possible for sex workers to parlay exclusive access and online content for income, like any other influencer on the internet, and to formally benefit from the newly cool economics of transactional creator-fan relationships that your faves from The Office found on Cameo or indie artists on Patreon.
