    It’s no joke. Finding the video that clicks just right to scratch that itch is just an experience on another level.

    I guess no one is coming here looking for wisdom related to porn consumption… but what is working great for me is making an account in raindrop.io and whenever you find something that clicks, save the bookmark here. Organise into categories you like. I tag pornstars names as well, since sometimes I want to see a particular person’s work.

    Sometimes I browse and save bookmarks of good new content. Sometimes I just want to get to business and I can find a bookmark for exactly the kind of thing I’m looking for.

      Ain’t nothing better than finding that specific star work’s that clicks with you and then go deep into their discography.

      And then be disappointed when the specific vibe gets lost and the acting stops being the same. Or they just retire. And come back after having a child and it’s not the same anymore.

        ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

        Or the easiest way is to search for new vids from Vixen or Wow Girls. Those are always top quality.

    I’m pretty sure they don’t invest in search because it’s a poor return on investment. Most people just hit the first page, crank one out, and leave. The next cohort is similarly easily satisfied with their crap search. The people looking for specifics like “big tit short red hair reverse cowgirl pov outdoors at dusk” aren’t profitable enough to spend engineering time on.

    That’s my hypothesis, anyway.

        They removed all videos from non-verified accounts a few years ago. They reason I heard they did this was so they didn’t have to do as much work moderating uploads. One thing they had a big issue with was content posted without the consent of everyone involved (such as revenge porn).

        Phub had an illegal content problem. They solved it by removing everything that wasn’t uploaded by a verified user with real life credentials.

        A lot of perfectly cromulent smut went down the drain with revenge porn and worse stuff.

    I hate PornHub search so much. I’m sure it used to work at some point in the past but now it’s completely useless. The only way to find something interesting for me is to scroll through garbage, click at anything even remotely promising, scroll through similar videos, click at anything even remotely promising, scroll through similar videos… Eventually I will usually find what I’m looking for - it is there but it’s fucking unsearchable for whatever reason. And mind you, I’m not into very niche stuff at all.

    Good thing I have a girlfriend now and I barely ever touch porn anymore.

      Make an account. Their algorithm is pretty good. And you can view just your subscriptions (à la YouTube).

        IMO their algorithm is ass. The front page is always all plastic titties and shitty step-porn and I actively click "not interested’ on those.

        Subscribing to channels/creators is useful enough to warrant creating an account though. I do wish the subs page wasn’t so limited

        I don’t want subscriptions, nor an algorithm. I want results for my search phrase. This technology exists for decades at this point. It should just work.
