thrwaway190503··on Pornhub wants to buy Tumblr
I just searched for "InRange TV" and just saw a page full of porn only. So I guess PH removes non-pornographic content.

do you (or does anyone here) know why Pornhub isn't also filled with non-pornographic content? Is it hard to publish on it? Do they "censor" non-pornographic content?

I mean that it would be a natural place for people to publish all kinds of videos if they didn't like another video platform and didn't mind having their videos surrounded by pornography, and especially if they didn't care about monetization.

but it doesn't have anything at all. For example try searching for "review" and you will (NSFW obviously) get a page full of actual reviews: of sex toys, only. Nothing else. click around all you want, it will only be sex-related.

Why is this? any other platform you can think of has parts that are just using the platform as a technical solution for distribution and not really on brand for that platform.

maybe I'm wrong but I've looked a few times but can't find anything. how does this happen?
