Its the nature of the beast, I'm sure in a few years we're going to see a migration away from platforms such as OF to something new too, at which point we'll see OF creators bitching they don't make any money.

Like most things in life, the adult industry is cyclical, all its going to take it some company to 'invent' the next new thing and things will shift again.

The real issue the industry has is that its become so watered down and clique it is now reactionary, rather than progressive as it used to be, the industry used to innovate, from things like vapes, to scripts and designs, not so much these days.
