Just wanted to say thank you to the kemono site owners. You work hard to fix issues and alot of people just give you hate because of their sense of entitlement to free smut. Your site is great and even tho I pay for some artists I still use your site because spending 300 a month on patreon subs isn't realistic.

Thanks for providing a service despite how insufferable some people can be!

You know, the only reason artists have to turn to sites like patreon is because there's no platform that offers a profit sharing partner program like youtube for NSFW.

As always it's a service problem. We need a spotify-like platform for artists. $10/mo for access to all artists, profits shared based on views/follows. It would take some time to gain momentum but it may be feasible at some point.

(shithole country dirt poor entitled welfare niggers that want literally everything for free and can't even afford $10/mo need not reply. I'm not talking to you. Get a job or kill yourself.)

It doesn't happen because, with the exception of the artists who need money to survive, and the users who ends up paying the money, everyone in the value chain likes having money.

NSFW is hard to secure payments for because the card networks and payment processors like money and porn is high-risk. The fraud numbers are just way out there, no other business gets anywhere near (except maybe crypto, which is why nobody wants to deal with them either). Card networks will charge ~2.5% for low-risk payments. Mainstream payment processors will charge ~3-3.5% to process your card payments, which gives them a margin on top of the low-risk rates. Trouble is, for high-risk payments, the card networks want more like 4-5%, and if you're charging 3-3.5%, you're losing money on that. So the likes of PayPal and Stripe won't process high-risk transactions. The porn industry had the same problem in the 90s, except not everyone and their mother was running a payment startup and the volume wasn't so big, so the margins were a bit thicker. The few players out there wanting 4-5% on a 2.5% network interchange didn't want to deal with porn. So some people in the industry set up their own payment processor to handle the high-risk payments, and eat the higher rates from the card networks, and they pretty much dominated the industry. This was CCBill, and they're still around. Sites like Patreon could still host NSFW if they wanted to, but they'd have to pay someone like CCBill more than they'd pay someone like Stripe, and they don't want to do that because they like money and why pay 5% when you can pay 3%?

That's the whole game. There's no morality being imposed, it's all just about money.
