I was in a similar place, an Economist subscriber, that stopped ~5yrs ago due to a decrease in writing quality. I switched to:

Financial Times - lead newspaper into Wirecard scandal

Süddeutsche Zeitung (in German) - famed for Panama Papers investigation

I complement it with readings from:

IEEE Spectrum (Science & Tech)

The Markup (Society)

Why did you choose to use Stripe, given you wanted an anonymous publishing platform?

While the use doesn't need to enter their cardholder name, their card details, ip address and any reference numbers can be tracked in Stripe's dashboard (Payment method info, Risk Insights, Related Payments).

While scheme payments are never truely anonymous, an approach you could use would be to tokenize card holder data and charge it to various linked PSPs. Such an approach would avoid all payments to one provider and obfuscate the user's ip address (since you are doing a server-to-server integration). Such a solution would typically add ~4c to your transaction costs.
