Leonid Radvinsky

When tech billionaire Leonid Radvinsky passed away recently, many obituaries made a big mistake when describing his legacy. You see, they stated that Radvinsky created or founded... Oh boy.

See, what we wanted to do here is do a profile of misdirection, where we describe what the Ukrainian-born, Jewish Radvinsky was doing in vague terms, and then end it with one simple word: "OnlyFans". (Two simple words?) But then we realized that a portion of our readers might not know what OnlyFans is, which might lead them to google it. We don't want that burden.

OnlyFans is probably... the world's largest porn website? Is PornHub larger? (We tried to look this up, but quickly stopped.) And no, Radvinsky did not create OnlyFans, that honor(?) goes to a British father-and-son team. Radvisnky bought it in 2018 and shifted it from a general video-sharing pay website to, well, porn. It made him billions... but those billions couldn't stop cancer, which took him away at 43.

So, now you know:

OnlyFans.
