Creators of AI image models for porn and celebrities are running out of easy hosting options as Civitai and Tensor.Art change their policies under pressure.
Let’s be reasonable here … they aren’t running out of options; they’re running out of monetizable options by hosting a centralized repository. Patreon is still an option, as are many others geared toward individual creators.
I shot a fair amount of porn of my then-wife starting in 2010 – predating OnlyFans – and the monetization options were so terrible (she categorically refused to hand over a 40% commission on principle) that we just posted to FetLife for free. Payment processors hold far too much power, essentially being extragovernmental censors

Patreon and Stripe can also kick you out arbitrarily.
