From the Editor’s Desk: Why We Launched a GoFundMe — And Why the Future of Creator Media Depends on It

By Joseph Haecker, Editor-in-Chief, Only Fans Insider Magazine

Five weeks.

That’s how long Only Fans Insider Magazine has been live. Just five weeks.

But in that short window, we’ve been met with an outpouring of support, engagement, and raw, unapologetic enthusiasm from a global community of content creators, fans, agencies, and everyday supporters who have all echoed one simple truth:

This is exactly what the creator economy has been missing.

We created Only Fans Insider Magazine to fill a very real void — a platform designed for the people who built OnlyFans from the ground up, who built loyal fanbases from scratch, who turned late-night livestreams and creative content into thriving businesses. We’re talking about the true creators, not the headline-grabbing celebrities who sign up for clout.

We didn’t expect the kind of reaction we’ve had. Not this fast. Not this loud. Not this urgent.

And now, to keep up with the incredible momentum we’ve generated, we need to scale — immediately.

So… What Exactly Is Only Fans Insider Magazine?

Let’s be clear: Only Fans Insider isn’t your typical magazine.

We’re not a glossy gatekeeping publication deciding who’s “worthy” of a feature.

We’re not pushing clickbait or performative content.

We’re something different — and something long overdue.

Only Fans Insider Magazine is the first digital magazine created by OnlyFans content creators, for OnlyFans content creators.

We’re a user-generated platform that empowers creators to take control of their own press and personal brand narrative — to share their stories, highlight their wins, explore their journeys, and connect with their fans and the public on a deeper, more human level.

Think of us like a modern-day Rolling Stone, but built for creators who’ve been left behind by traditional media.

We don’t just give you a seat at the table — we help you build the damn table.

The Problem: A Community Left Behind

Let’s talk about the elephant in the room.

Mainstream media and OnlyFans corporate have spent the last few years distancing themselves from the very creators that made the platform successful.

You’ve probably seen it.

Every time you see a mainstream article about OnlyFans, it’s usually about a celebrity joining the platform. An actress. A rapper. A reality star. A former athlete.

They’re always positioned as trailblazers — as if they invented the game — while the creators who’ve spent years building audiences, businesses, and careers on the platform are treated as background noise.

Even OnlyFans itself has begun reshaping its public image. Their press spotlights now focus on high-profile partnerships, brand-safe campaigns, and celebrity endorsements. But what about the everyday creators? The ones working night and day to produce, promote, and stay afloat in an algorithmic war zone?

What about the people whose lives actually changed because of OnlyFans?

They’ve been forgotten.

And that’s exactly why we exist.

The Solution: More Magazines. More Voices. More Impact.

We’ve launched a GoFundMe campaign with one bold and necessary goal: to raise $15,000 to expand our platform and keep the momentum going.

Here’s what that funding will unlock:

✅ Six New Digital Magazines

We’re not talking about adding a few more pages. We’re talking about launching six new, full-fledged magazines — each focused on a different niche, genre, or demographic of creators within the OnlyFans community.

Whether it’s alternative lifestyle creators, fitness coaches, cosplayers, tattoo models, couples content creators, or travelers — each magazine will serve a distinct voice within this rich and diverse creator ecosystem.

This is about specificity, identity, and visibility.

✅ A Pilot “Chapters” Program

Creators are tired of working in isolation. They’re tired of doing everything themselves — the content, the editing, the promotion, the fan engagement — all from behind a screen.

Our Chapters Program will create in-person meetups in cities across the U.S. and beyond, where OnlyFans content creators can come together to network, support each other, collaborate on projects, and build genuine relationships.

Because creators deserve community — not just followers.

This initiative is about bringing creators out from behind their phones and into real-world support systems.

Why This Campaign Matters (To All of Us)

Only Fans Insider Magazine is the only press platform currently giving full control to creators over how they tell their stories. No editors twisting your words. No brand managers filtering your truth.

When you publish with us, you own your narrative.

And for creators who are trying to grow, build trust with fans, land brand partnerships, or simply be seen as more than just their content — that visibility is everything.

We’re giving creators the media tools they were never offered.

We’re giving them the PR they could never afford.

We’re giving them something no one else has even tried to give:

Respect.

And right now, we’re asking you to help us grow this vision. Not for us — but for the thousands of creators out there whose voices are still waiting to be heard.

Final Thoughts from the Editor’s Desk

I’ve spent my career building platforms that amplify the voices too often left behind.

As a former lighting designer turned serial entrepreneur, as a father, as someone who’s lived in hostels and five-star resorts alike, and as a lifelong advocate for storytelling, I know one thing for sure:

Stories have the power to change lives.

But only when we give people the microphone.

Only Fans Insider Magazine exists to pass that mic to a community that’s been overlooked, underestimated, and underserved.

This is about more than a magazine.

It’s about creating space. It’s about rewriting narratives. It’s about reminding creators that they don’t have to wait to be chosen — they can choose themselves.

Let’s do this. Together.

Cheers!
