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?

Some gun vloggers were talking about moving to a porn site after Youtube banned them, but I don't know if anything came of it.

There's also a Pornhub meme community. Brightly colored videos of dancing Shrek heads and so on - on Pornhub!

But I don't think there are many non-pornographic content creators who want to publish to a porn site.

InRange TV (Ian from Forgotten Weapons and a couple other guys) posted a couple videos there during the threat of bans from YouTube. I don't know if they've posted any others since they were never banned and their audience on YT is so much larger. It'd be interesting to see if the videos are still up or if they were removed.

The old videos are still up, but they mostly stopped uploading new videos to it a while back. It was discussed in the January Q&A. They're still uploading to bitchute and full30.

I just searched for "InRange TV" and just saw a page full of porn only. So I guess PH removes non-pornographic content.
