There was some other social media site that banned porn a few years ago, I think it was Tumblr? I wonder how that worked out for them.

OnlyFans tried a while back. There was probably some internal political maneuvering going on with that one.

Isn't the whole point of that platform porn though?

OnlyFans isn't funded by advertising. It appears to be the credit card industry at the heart of this one.
