All the girls who made millions on the site made a big stink on social media. But idk how OnlyFans got around whatever made them stop in the first place. It’s not like they had moral obligations or anything?
It was their bank/payment provider who demanded they removed that type of content. When given the choice of no money vs. a lot less money, OnlyFans wisely (from a business standpoint) chose less money and got prepared to make the best of their platform that way.
Apparently they figured out how to continue as before. My guess is that the bank/payment provider realized how massive of a loss it is to them and did a 180. They wanted to take a moral high ground, but realized it would cost them a lot so they chose money instead, as most businesses would.
Just like YouTube, but in that case their source of income was advertisers so they bend to their will to the detriment of their users.
Money is a huge factor in this turnaround.
