Well, I'll report that older chapters, at least the ones I have tested, returned for me today.
On the issue of ads and financial support, I didn't bother reading the reports about the situation back when the support system worked (if there were any), but since the site actually worked with no issues, and a change as big as this one has been possible and pretty much seamless, I will guess things were okay on that front before. So I guess there is enough people willing to help so that it actually worked before. Maybe things will get more expensive after the change, so I can't confidently say the same system would work from now on, but it's a safe bet, isn't it?
I'm strongly against ads in any form on the site. I don't think the ad economy has brought much good to the internet in the last 10 years, and I don't think it will get any better in the future. The natural movement should be away from it.
I'm speaking a bit off my ass here, I assume you have already considered these options. Maybe you could set up a Paypal account with automatic transference? You could also negotiate with Patreon, but I don't trust those guys one bit, and I would personally try to avoid them, but it seems it has worked for a lot of people, so maybe.
