The owner of OnlyFans, a site known for its adult content that is credited with revolutionising the online porn industry, has died at the age of 43.
Leonid Radvinsky, who was born in Ukraine and grew up in Chicago, had purchased the company in 2018 from its two UK-based founders.
The site’s popularity surged during the Covid-19 pandemic, landing him on Forbes’ annual list of billionaires just three years later.
He “passed away peacefully after a long battle with cancer,” OnlyFans confirmed in a statement, which asked for privacy for his family.


What’s empowering about whoring yourself to the same people that are responsible for why everything is so expensive?
Brother I do that every day and I’m an accountant
Jesus Christ, every time sex work is mentioned it brings out the anti-sex work incels and freaks. At least you guys make it easy to figure out who to block.
That’s… Not how that works. And shaming people who have no shame over their own sexuality and bodies is exactly the problem here.
Your (quite legitimate) problem with billionaires is only tangentially related.
That is how it works for the vast majority of people.
Very, very few of them are “empowered” by their position.
I don’t wanna hear any more of your ignorance or any more of your excuses for your ignorance. It’s all bullshit.
It’s not my shame, but the shame of people who are forced into prostitution because of their socioeconomic standing.
I’ll be sure to let them know how you feel, though.
psychological projection
No, it’s the vast majority of them.
If you disagree, then you’re wrong. It really is that simple.
This is in a conversation about prostitution. And this isn’t a conversation about me.
This is a conversation about your silly opinions and how they are formed by projecting your negative feelings about yourself onto others and that you do that because you hold a negative self image.
And that is bad and you shouldn’t do that.
Lol, ok pal.
