The OnlyFans website appears to be down for some users.
People have said they aren’t able to direct message other users, while others have expressed their fury at not being able to upload new content.

Twitter also tends to erupt with people complaining of outages when the network is down.
The website’s official social media profiles will likely release a statement if the outage is likely to last an extended period of time.
There is also a section on the OnlyFans website which details if problems are being investigated and is updated once they are resolved.
This could be down to maintenance or the server simply being overloaded, for example.
When have there been OnlyFans outages before?

On August 5, 2021, people complained about not being able to upload content, although the servers seemed to be working.
One content creator tweeted a screenshot of an “internal error” message she’d received on the website, while others claimed the messaging section wasn’t working.
Outages were also reported on July 29, 30 and 31, 2021, with more people moaning they couldn’t upload videos.
Before that, there were “glitches” on July 1, things weren’t loading at the end of June, and content was streaming “like dial up” in May.
