      With the extremely niche categorise I’ve seen, unless you mean something actually illegal, I just don’t really agree.

      in my experience the niche content on mainstream sites tends to be generic meaningless content made primarily by uh, creators who aren’t actually in the community but are just dabbling around

      So tldr yes free does exist but you prefer to pay for quality. It’s pretty much the same with even vanilla categories.

        Also should be using an alt, but too lazy.

        Not illegal stuff, just very fringe stuff. There’s like 5 videos that float around and all link back to paid sources. Once you’ve finished to those same 5 videos for the 30th time, you’re fucking bored with them, and you have to seek out homemade stuff by being involved in online communities for it, or by paying for it. Most of the time the homemade shit you also have to pay for.

          Feels like this is more a specific scenario than a genre, but I’m gonna take your word for it.

          I would be interested to know just what is so hard to find given some of the things I’ve a friend sometimes searched for. But not enough to want to make others say aloud what they searched for.

          I think I know a bit what you’re talking about, I think.
