What's the current feminist take on OnlyFans?

I recently listened to a podcast on the book "The Second Sex" by Simone de Beauvoir and how it was a seminal text for modern feminism. The subject/object dichotomy accentuation was interesting but I was wondering how/if that would apply to the modern day advent of online sex work(onlyfans). More specifically: are women the subjects or objects when choosing to get an onlyfans(or maybe sex work in general??). Are they practicing self-autonomy by choosing to do such work or are they objects subjected to the whims of men--specifically through men wanting certain beauty standards, fetishes, personality traits etc... What's the modern feminist consensus on this topic?

There isn’t a consensus. Sex work is one of the most contentious issues within feminist philosophy and politics today. The two perspectives you outline roughly correspond to the “sex positive” and “sex negative” perspectives, but there are many shades between those two.
