I've had an OF subscription for a while and I haven't seen any creators using it as a platform to solicit sex.

I don’t think you’re missing anything.  Seems like most of the providers  list a super low hourly rate way for escort services, and  are just trying to get you to subscribe to their OF to screen.  Im sure appointments never happen.

I came across an absolute smokeshow on Tryst.  Fantastic pictures and a couple of well written paragraphs about how she's going to make my fantasies come true.  

 
No rates.  No links.  No contact information.  Only the 'Message Me' button.

 
Class OF come on.

Chiming in.

As a single mother it helps supplement my income. I don’t know about others, but it allows people to see all of me un-blurred no edits. VIP OF has XXX content I post almost everyday. I have a free onlyfans too, but it does not create as much revenue as my VIP. I use it as a way to make money from home, or remotely.  
I would never use OF as a reference. OF has strict rules. Your account can get terminated. No meet ups. I do not collaborate & the majority do. Statics show OF is hugely popular in Gen X.
