Interesting topic.
Generally speaking, I do agree with the OP.
Some personal experience.
I discovered LP in 2014-2015. If I my memory serves me well, I remember that already in that time there were some legendary actresses appreciated by many forumers (Crystal Greenvelle, Luciana Karel, Goldie, Blanche Bradburry) who represented the 2010-2015 generation of models. I've never been attracted to this generation (of course I respect them and their legacy!).
My first LP-memories are linked to girls who entered the platform in 2015-2018 period. In my mind, this was the begging of "my" golden-LP era which, in my memories, I do associate with the likes of Roxy Black, Anna Rey, Kira Roller, Monika Wild, Selvaggia, Anastasia Rose, Charlotte Sartre, Mai Thai, Taylee Wood or Sara Bell. Some of them are among my favourites, others not, but still I do appreciate their work and their legacy. I just mean I associate their faces and their scene with what I consider the golden era of the LP platform.
I remember having had a period of disinterest in LP stuff in 2020-2021. The core studios reduced production and my favourite models retired or reduced their apperances. Then, and I remember this day very well, NRX studio released the Kamila Wow x Vega scene. It was in january 2021. For me, it was the begging of the second LP-golden era. This scene opened my mind to the world of raw Russian anal porn.
I've always been focused on Euro girls, especially Slavic ones, so I welcomed with pleasure and hope all the new Russian studios, with NRX, Valter Karo and Vira Gold on the top. The 2021-2023 period brought some of my very favourite girls: Kamila Wow, Sunny Shine, Shinobu Kocho, Carla Cage... I almost stopped to buy GG and Gonzo made porn because I was completly focused on Russian studios.
And then, the Russia-Ukraine war came, the Russian output got heavily reduced and, finally, the Russian porn died.
There are some scenes from remote past that had been shot before the LP platform was created. More experiences watchers/posters are certainly familiar with Sineplex/NRFTA Giorgio Grandi output from his Piter years and "old" Czech made scenes (I don't really know who shot them, they often feature Denis Reed, young Angelo Godshack or the legendary Pavel Faun). Much of this stuff is or was available on the LP platform (and that's great), but I'm not sure these scenes can be considered LP-made. From that period, I'm especially fond of two girls: Sarah Lollypop and Nika Star - Nika is my very favourite model of all time, I'm really happy she had shot some epic scenes with Giorgio Grandi and Omar Galanti, but I would have really loved she could have appeared on LP during it's golden era about 2015-2016. But it was already too late...
By "LP-made", I mean scenes produces by LP-core studios: GG and Gonzo, then many more studios with high (in terms of quantity and quality) output (especially Russian ones).
That being said, I consider there were, for me, two peak periods of LP-made porn, the second first during 2015-2020 (GG and Gonzo) and 2021-2023 (Russian studios).
My point of view is of course very subjective as I've always focused on Slavic girls.
I don't think there will be another prime period in the LP-platorm history. I would say the 2015-2020 was the golden era, the 2021-2023 the silver one. And since 2023, I experience the bronze age of LP-made Slavic-oriented porn. Today, LP priorities, for different reasons, are elsewhere. I do understand this, but I'm not going to follow the new tendencies. I prefer to live in the past. The glorious past.
