I’m probably being thick but I can’t see any place to pay.

Happy to tip or make a paid subscription of you can make this a little more user friendly... by the way, would be delighted to read a longer piece on your interpretation /explanation of Roman law

Upgrading to a paid subscription is less obvious than it should be.

And it seems this FAQ is _wrong_.

Some substacks I read have a link to a https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ button to simulate a tipping jar.

Perhaps I am following too many stacks. I pay for a bunch now at some several $100s in total. As it is I can't really afford any more. In some cases of stacks where only paying subscribers can comment, I pay in order to express my thoughts. Many I subscribe to for free have more than enough comments that adding mine just creates more noise. There seems to be a balance. The stacks I read, I obviously value.
