Hmmm ... for the record, here's the thinking that led to the current tip structure:

FWIW, I'd love to see a $1.00 option added to the mix. 25¢ is too small, $3 is too much, $1 is just right. :-)

Agreed, 25c is too small, min should be $1. Also I think the sweet spot is between $1-6, IMO there should be multiple options in the middle here.

Yeah, the current pricing jumps from $1 to $12 a month, $1 to $4 is $4-$24, quite a gap. Honestly, I'd also prefer monthly contributions, thinking in week increments is an american thing. Credit card statements and salaries come in monthly for most of the world, I think.
