I'm gonna try to take a higher level view. We're looking at this through our own perspective, as the customers have a right to.
Someone mentioned the pandemic. OF, when you think about it, got biggest during the pandemic. I couldn't go to the strip club. The girls couldn't work. SWers had to figure out new hustles. I found a few on OF who I got into real long conversations with via the DMs. Not only were they dropping fresh content every couple of days, they could chat on their own free time.
It really WAS a personal experience. We had nothing else to fuckin' DO.
These days, two of them who I've been with since the pandemic have started using messaging services. I knew it as soon as it happened because I knew their "voices" and they changed overnight. Now it's the standard bullshit from them. But those girls are older, their kids are growing, they've got lives again outside the OF.
What I think has happened with the newer OF girls is they're now starting up thinking an agency is expected, the norm, what everyone does. The agency promotes itself where before there was none.
And the girls have it easier three, four, five years down the road. Many of the young ones now just go stream on whatever site or app and take tips via direct cash. No tech hassles, no content archives. OF is a hassle to them, it's expected that you have an OF page but OF is WORK compared to the other shit they do. OF has become like the facebook of porn now, only your parents use it.
Yeah, I kinda think OF jumped the shark awhile ago. Maybe it's day is already done. By the time the agencies show up - the sharks in the water - they're just the symptom, not the cause.
