Just a personal post and question...
Added 2021-01-15 02:05:30 +0000 UTCSo, hi guys. As you can see, Deviant Art is cracking down on my released male items for displaying erections which is totally understandable. For some reason, I thought I'd be able to fly under the radar considering all the available hentai on there that seems to be allowed.
There were a couple posts on here from people who were angry about Patreon and how everything I make should be free, yadda, yadda, yadda. Well, the biggest part of the problem is finding somewhere to host this stuff for free. I already can't unlock the Sugar tier posts on here without Patreon banning me - anything with nudity, according to them, must be kept behind a paywall to ensure only 18+ users can access it. And that makes sense too. But where else do I host this stuff once it is released? Tumblr also cracked down on not only nudity, but also censored images that suggest nudity. I think DA follows a stance similar to Tumblr where The Sims is considered 'too realistic' for even the suggestion of such things to be acceptable.
Anyway, since I was planning to start a new page strictly for male items, this inability to release them in any capacity outside of Patreon becomes a problem. Do any of you know of sites where such items might be allowed? The only one I know of is Lover's Lab, but I find their forums slow, clunky, and unresponsive. However, if it comes to it then I will start releasing there instead. Thought I'd ask you guys first just in case you knew of a few other alternatives.

Reddit? Twitter? I can't think of any other places those are just the two that popped into my mind although I'm not sure how you'd charge for stuff

You spend the time making content I'm going to want to acquire, you should be compensated accordingly. I say stick with patreon if you can't find a more suitable alternative.
