I'm not sure whether I think there's invisible shit going on--PBNs or 2.0's we can't see in ahrefs--or if its literally just that they were early to the game and have too much momentum to be dethroned.

I kind of think its the latter.
Users are ... well, let's paraphrase the old italian song "La user e mobile" they don't have that kind of loyalty en masse. Free users are like locusts they go everywhere looking for new shit or perfect fix shit. XNXX ranks because it is doing something active - I'm not sure what, but I wish I knew. I also wonder, since their revenue game is inept or "crazy like a fox", if they aren't an undervalued property.

They actually outrank Reddit on similarweb - that doesn't seem passive, they are one of the big 4. They are sitting up there with billion$ web sites and they make money how? Not really ads - their ads are by TrafficFactory.biz . Do they have a membership option? Not that you can easily find. No content creator partnerships.
