Both of these platforms have attracted billions of creators over the span of the last three years. They are rather popular for providing SWers with a safe space to upload content and earn money.
Most content creators are familiar with Fansly and Onlyfans mainly because of their similarity in their design and UI.
These are well the top chosen platforms for adult entertainment creators, although they have not always proven to be loyal to their creators.
Onlyfans
The platform gained popularity during covid-19 when people were looking for new ways to connect online. Well-known adult entertainers and celebrities have joined the platform in an attempt to enhance their fans’ and followers’ experiences by sharing explicit content. Celebrities like Cardi B, Bella Throne, Tyga, and Chris Brown have joined the void of content creation on Onlyfans as it quickly became a norm.
It is notable that not all creators create adult content although the vast majority do and this has established strong bonds for NSFW content to the brand.
The downhill
Back in late 2022 Onlyfans made a decision to ban explicit and NSFW content leaving millions of creators in distress and helplessness. Although, this was an attempt from Onlyfans to move on to the next chapter they have left their creators infuriated and disappointed.
Fansly
Fansly is a relatively new platform, with records of its existence dating back to 2020. There are no clear records as to when it was created, however, it is certain that its popularity fused from the allegations that onlyfans would ban adult content in 2020. Even though, it has not been actualized until mid-2022 creators started applying so that they could have a safety net.
Fansly has prominently taken on thousands of creators during that period and reached its peak in early 2021.
What’s the catch?
Fansly has received a lot of positive feedback about their platform from their creators highlighting that it’s a pleasant experience.
The part they did not seem to perfect yet is their support towards the creators as reviews claim that their support messages are slow to be responded to or even noticed. Also, their verification process has pushed away a lot of creators as it is lengthy with low success rates.
Which is the best?
It is very hard to give the spotlight to one platform as it all depends on the creator’s needs and goals. Onlyfans is definitely a better platform for already-established creators looking for an add-on to their content creation ventures. Fansly is a safe choice for SWers as that is the main niche they support.
New players in the game
Fanvue joined the industry in early 2020 with massive success and growth since then. As the platform is created by creators themselves they have highly prioritized their support towards creators and features. With continuous growth, the platform reached its peak in 2021 with Onlyfans’ 0% creators moving to Fanvue and even investing.
Bryce Adams is a top 0% creator on Onlyfans who earned over $4.7 million since January 2021 – has 480,000 fans and nearly 7.9 million likes, making her the most-liked creator on Onlyfans. She has noticed Fanvue and its accelerated growth and made the decision to invest and collaborate with Fanvue. This highlights the importance of Fanvue as a relatively new platform and the confidence put in its mission.
Fanvue has gained popularity for the diversity of content available on the platform and its innovative features. The platform itself is easy to use for creators looking to join the direct-to-fan sector.
