because the aforementioned website is known almost exclusively for porn.

Some, maybe most, people would be fine with it, nothing wrong with it really.

But if you're trying to earn a living why cut yourself off from the 50% of people that wouldn't subscribe due to the site name only.

Besides the association, which one might or might not be fine with, I'd worry that being porn-centric would put OF at risk of credit card companies not wanting to work with them, similar to what PornHub faced recently.
