In a tweet published yesterday, OnlyFans has said that the company has “secured assurances necessary to support our diverse creator community” and has “suspended the planned October 1 policy change”. This means they decided the decision to ban sexually explicit content on the platform is no longer necessary.

The tweet alluded to the banking industry as the cause for the ban and that it was a change in attitude from public outcry for the reversal. The response to the announcement has caused mixed reactions, as some creators are relieved to be able to continue working on the platform in the way they would like. However, this flip-flop has also brought up the question of trust, as creators are looking to diversify their work in other OnlyFans alternatives.
