      Genuine question, are there people out there who would do this for fun? Because it sounds like a lot of work to me.

        I’d say it was more common in the past, and then a lot of them realised they can do it for money. Same with youtube.

    This happened to a girl I knew that tried to make some money on onlyfans during Covid lockdown. Only lasted 4 months, even though she was pretty attractive. I think guys just assume that as a girl, you can simply post nudes online and make money, while it actually does require consistent effort, marketing skills, and a bit of luck.

      There’s a bit on the Netflix Pornhub documentary from a camgirl. She notes that she does her own marketing, lighting, camera work, etc., and every once in a while, she masturbates on camera. It’s a real job with real effort.

        Yeah, you can see this for yourself if you have a VR headset and a couple of sites have VR cams set up.

        Mostly they forget they exist (although I’m grateful for the ones that don’t), so you get a kind of behind the scenes look at it all.

        The one thing that strikes me is their demeanour the instant they’re off the main cam. These girls are so fucking done with everything and everyone, and it’s not surprising most of them quit after a month or two. Most of them are probably getting a fraction of the money tipped, with a good chunk going to the handlers (a lot of pretend typing going on, and they get directed by the person at the keyboard) and room rent (much of it seems to be in the same handful of buildings somewhere in St Petersburg). Many of them are on multiple sites at once, with phone apps on the go as well.

        It’s a real business.

      I know so many people trying to make it as streamers who cannot seem to understand that you have to do a lot of work to make anything catch on unless you are crazy lucky/extremely attractive. A regular person playing a game isn’t interesting for others and it takes energy for most to cultivate a following.

        My cousin dropped out of university after a few months, and wanted to be a pro gaming streamer instead.

        Oddly enough he never did achieve that, and now mostly sits around his parent’s house doing quite a lot of being depressed.

      Frankly, I’m glad she was spared the trouble. I can’t imagine they’d be able to offer words of encouragement without seeming intensely parasocial. A generic “you’re hot” wouldn’t have amounted to much. It doesn’t seem like there’s a correct answer, besides finding her irl, flashing her unlocked onlyfans, and begging for her socks

        A generic “you’re hot” wouldn’t have amounted to much.

        I was reading the debate at Lemmy NSFW about downvotes. There was a comment made by one of the content creators about lack of meaningful comments were kind of demoralizing. I try to give genuine compliments cause it’s not easy putting nude photos of yourself to the internet. The internet can be brutal place out there.

        Meaning upvotes and bland comments are nice however they don’t replace genuine human interactions that we all seek.

    Lil tiddy supermarket goth girl sounds cute tbh, or maybe I just have a type.

    Anyway, girls like this can be a real gem to find if you’re a gooner. Their small fan base means if you’re not a creep there’s a chance of genuine interaction. She’ll probably take request and if she likes you might even send you free content.

    The funny thing is that if this greentext linked this girl OnlyFans, she would gain tons of views just out of pity.

    Some of these would even stick around afterwards.

      Someone linked what they think was the person in a comment, at best they went to a lot of effort for very little in return.

      Not without a sob-story from the girl. Doubt she did it for the money. Someone with the time and commitment to doing this(if not energy or enthusiam) she demonstrated would make better money doing just about anything else.

          I mean, I said “if not … enthusiasm” because the only evidence of enthusiasm I’ve seen is the reported volume of her content. The link I followed from a comment here was lacking in quantity, and her pics exuded apathy.

          That said, you seem to be assuming she wouldn’t have a day-job or any will to survive, and stating it like common knowlege or even wisdom. I’m not here to correct you, but only because I can’t be bothered. Just … damn. Whatever you say.

    I see this quite often on the other side of reddit. It’s quite sad. On that side of reddit, where no one shows their face, except occasionals who either leave generic “sexy 😍” comments or entitled requests, no one acknowledges you for trying.

    Every time I see some woman praising sex work and/or calling it feminist, I am reminded of the 10 other girls who who_red away their dignity for absolutely nothing

      Sex work isn’t often feminist, but sex workers still deserve respect. They deserve to be included in the feminist movement.

        And we can start by no longer implying that the work is somehow undignified. This applies to OP as well as GP.

        Sex workers shouldn’t have to wait for the revolution to find respect. Maybe there wouldn’t be sex workers after the revolution, but I certainly hope it results in a society where people are freer to express their sexuality in safe and consensual ways.

      That’s what you get when you post on Reddit. Lemmy users appreciate everyone (becaude the communities are almost dead).
