Perhaps this just means people value her feet more than music? I'm not into feet, but I really didn't like her music, so maybe this is reasonable.
Not really. It just means onlyfans pays more than Spotify... which seems obvious to me??? A direct subscription to an artist vs only a few cents per play... yeah, no brainer, the artist is going to make less money in the latter deal.
Good for her. If I thought there was a market for my disgusting claws I'd sell feet pics too.

OnlyFans reportedly takes 20% of subscription revenue
That's a mobster-loanshark level cut.
Doesn’t Spotify offer like .5%
Maybe. Without it, though, the individual would have to build and maintain a site, direct traffic there, and handle payments, as well still do all of the community management and content creation they already do. Now either they'd spend their own time doing this if they have the knowledge, or pay others, which might meet or exceed that 20% depending on their income level.
20% is considered low
All others take at least 30%

Something I've noticed in British media as of late is that OnlyFans makes some serious money - enough so that a creator can essentially use local journalism as an outlet for promoting their page.
I doubt some of the figures, but if you were to dig into them you'd probably see that number after the media have basically told people "look! Lily Allen has OnlyFans!"
Alongside that, funny enough, OnlyFans is probably one of the UK's biggest tech success stories. They make a lot of money, have only a few employees, and are basically leaders in their field. That's probably another weighing towards this being a promo piece.
Do they make that much? I read only top creators do. Especially those who are already famous from other fields.
The previous commenter is saying that the company makes serious money.
I never considered myself to be a foot-fetish guy, but damn she does indeed have sexy feet
Eh. Not great, not terrible.
Seeing how this thread is full of hate for Spotify by seeming large number of people who are fans of streaming music/podcast services, I'll pos this question here:
What are the better alternatives for someone seeking to get their favored audios, in terms of library selection, able to form custom playlists and how much if any support to the artist/content creator actually gets to them and what is pocketed by the app?
Tidal, or buy albums and self host if you're up for it but I feel like that's not a real option for most.
I don't think there's all-in-one best option
library size
Deezer
how much is paid to the creator
Bandcamp
Self host and buy the albums
How big is the percentage artists get for the album really though?
That is a complex question but my line of thought is this: artists have accepted legal agreements on how to sell/stream their work and how much they get for it. You as a consumer don't need to worry about this. If there is a way to buy/stream the product legally then the artist has approved of getting money that way.
Basically i don't think this should be a point to discourage buying audio and owning it. The alternative is never owning music and tough luck if a song gets pulled because of legal disputes or whatever.

From creating toe tappers to taping her toes.
I love how the whole crowd of people that used to be all "what, you don't have a Spotify account?!" Are now starting with the "wait a minute, these guys are domineering and bad!" Like the signals for crowd abuse aren't plain as day.
This exploitative behavior will be down by literally any company that sets themselves up to be "the streets" that you gotta navigate to interact with someone else or their media. That means YouTube, Facebook, and also all those physical places on Earth.
I had a 6 month trial of Spotify for $1 so I thought I'd try it to see if it would help me discover new music. It only has about 70% of the albums in my collection. I wasn't willing to lose 30% of my music so it's back to USB in the car and plexamp everywhere else.
