So great to have the sliding scale for contributions, genius!

Yep. The goal is to let everyone participate, regardless of what their means are

Does this only work in a browser? Each link just takes me to your feed in the app here.

I want to do the same thing, starting low. I think most stacks price themselves out of most of their potential paid members' budgets.

Seems that way. That's a huge bug. Thank you for finding it

I do some of that for a living. I think I just instinctually find bugs... I always notice out-of-date copyright years in footers, heh

Regardless, I hopped over to my PC and it works. I'm definitely going to do this on my own. People paying $50+ a year for a blog... I don't get that, so I'm definitely not going to charge that much myself.

Best of luck. I think a lot of it depends on the value your work brings. I have readers that used my work to get better jobs or find ideas that improved their solutions. With a lot of knowledge work- the ROI from one great article can 2-3x revenues. Which is why charging more can be worth it.

I note non-current years in footers, too. Also: UI errors and error messages which would have been graded as errors in my Georgia Tech programming classes in 1980's.

I’m gonna use the β€œPatron of the Arts” line too. That’s brilliant.

Afraid I'll have to charge you for it. Will need you to do a few more of your excellent guest posts.
