There shouldn't be any monthly fee to use Paypal. In general, the seller or recipient of the payment pays 4% fees of the amount received, or the buyer sends the payment as a gift and pays the fees themselves/forgoes buyer purchase protection.
May I ask where you heard about this monthly fee?

He's referring to the monthly recurring supportership for PC I believe, 1 dollar a month for Tier 4.
You have to sign up for that manually so if you just donate a bit now you won't be signed up for it. Although if you plan on donating anyway at some point you might be better off, because you'll have tier 4 perks while not having paid the 20 dollars for them until 20 months goes by, and then you can cancel the subscription and keep tier 4.

I don't follow. Are you saying that one has to pay for "premium" customer support? That doesn't seem ethical for a financial institution to enforce such one-sided policies.

Uh, no.
You can donate to PC, and as a result you get perks. A bigger avatar, more profile customization, a blog, and various other little perks depending on what tier you have (how much you donate). You can just donate flat out to get the tier you want, or you can do a recurring supportership, which is a dollar a month and automatically puts you in tier 4 as long as you donate (tier 4 is equivalent to 20 bucks in donations).
Everyone gets the same support no matter what tier they are, just people that don't donate (or don't have supportership, since you can get it in ways other than donating yourself) don't have those side perks.
