Despite the announcement, OnlyFans' revenue has continued to grow, with projections reaching $2.5 billion in 2022—doubling from $1.2 billion the previous year. Nonetheless, the platform's intentional move away from adult content indicates a strategic shift to attract broader, "safe-for-work" audiences.
Several alternative platforms have emerged, copying OnlyFans’ model but focusing solely on safe content (e.g., bikinis, non-explicit photos). These startups aim to fall within app store guidelines and attract investment, but industry insiders believe the cat's already out of the bag—the genie is too far gone, and mass migration of creators to these "safer" outlets is likely, though they will struggle to match OnlyFans' existing mass market.
