What does OnlyFans reveal about creator monetization?

First, my warning: I forecast the OnlyFans business, I do not support it. I understand people want to make money, but I object to what it role-models to young girls. Now the business lesson. OnlyFans proves that creators who control access, community, and the payment relationship convert attention straight into revenue. No gatekeeper skims the top. That direct-monetization model is now spreading to every kind of creator and expert. Own the checkout, and you own the business.
