Abram, you would need 100s of supporters at your current highest level for you to make an annual salary. That seems like quite a lot given the size of our community. But I do think there’s an appreciable chance some people would support you much more than that level.
Seeing that someone promptly signed up for your $500 tier, I hereby recurse on my proposal for a higher tier.
I took the $50 tier in part because it was the highest, and I expect the $500-person did the same.
Suggested heuristic: when someone buys your highest tier, you should make sure that there is a new highest tier.
Also, right now when someone looks at your patreon membership tiers, they only see $5, $10, $20, and a subtle arrow for more. I’d recommend removing the many lower tiers so that the first page shows $50, $200, $500, and an arrow for $1,000 and $5,000.

It is possible to manually adjust the number when signing up. But, point taken.

I heartily second Ben here.
As Patrick McKenzie has been saying for almost 20 years, “you can probably stand to charge more”.
