OnlyFans doesn't have an app but they're still in business. We must educate people about not relying on apps for everything.

It doesn't have an app because it can't, not because it wouldn't benefit from it.

I would argue Patreon cannot have an app on the App Store as it would cause them to mess up their (and the users') business models... 30% is huge !!! I am baffled by why they would bend to Apple instead of upgrading their website.
