Gumroad is banning NSFW content today.
🕑 Added 2024-03-15 18:20:20 +0000 UTCBUY ANYTHING YOU MIGHT WANT HERE:https://darkchibishadow.gumroad.com/
PLEASE BE AWARE BEFORE BUYING: most content on the Gumroad is available here on Patreon. (So check here first!)
ALL of it is backed up on my $5 site though.
Why am I posting about this here?
With the recent changes to Patreon's TOS (tldr: making them more vague, which is going to allow for a lot more sweeping bans, which may one day include me due to m/onster f/ucker and B/DSM content) this 24 hours only warning from Gumroad is a giant slap in the face to adult content creators.
Gumroad admits in their announcement that they are bowing to payment processor's on this one and indeed: it's payment processors who are making it difficult for EVERYONE around the internet. (This is a nice time to remind everyone that P*RN IS LEGAL IN THE USA...)
For full transparency, Gumroad was how I got through the month most months. Patreon covers my rent, bills, and taxes, but anything else I wanted to buy for fun or needed for work came from stuff like Gumroad. It was the reason I stopped having to do as many commissions (which are a HUGE time sink) and could focus on original stuff.
It was a pretty big deal for me (financially) and now it's being pulled out from under me just like that; but it isn't just me. This is affecting a ton of people right now, so please do your best to support adult creators you like. (Being a Patron is obviously one of the best things you can do, but try to share some people's posts about this and speak up about how mad it's making you.)
Anyways, that's all to say, I'm stuck here. There's only so much I can do in this situation. A lot of people are in my same situation.
Right now, most of my PDF content is backed up thru Itchio -- so follow me there for future PDF updates. I also (surprisingly) use Google Play books for PDFs too.
However, this means fan comics like my Voxman and Dungeon Meshi stuff is going into purgatory and I have no idea when it'll next become available or where. For now, it'll be exclusive to this page and the $5 site.
Another thing I want to recommend is going through the PDF tag on this page and downloading anything you care about now. We have no idea what the future of my content holds and I make these PDFs *specifically* so folks can have their own, personal, offline archive of my work. Please, save it.
Thank you all for everything you do. I'm going to post a lot about this all over my socials, so please share if you see it. Thanks!

Onlyfans is not a replacement for Gumroad and even then, it's absolutely not the only place left. I've always had an Itchio and posted there (as I mentioned above) and live action folks still have quite a few places to post stuff too, but yes, it is getting a lot harder all around for everyone.

Looks like onlyfans is the only place left...

Yep! A lot of adult creators have seen the writing on the wall, sadly. We gotta keep speaking out about this and supporting porn where we can!

Wow, welcome the the Second Victorian Age, with judgmental pursed lips like a cat's ass.
