> I.e. I want to support the band, but feel like only a fraction of the money spent on merch goes to the target. Same with websites that have mugs and such. I don't want another mug, I don't want to pay 5.99 for shipping, I don't need to support the white box oem mug manufacturer.

I know some musicians are using Patreon but patreon takes a cut as well.

Now Although I don't like github but one of the last things that I like about github is that github sponsorships don't charge anything extra than the costs it would have itself and you get chargeback protection.

Would there be a genuine interest in using Github for sponsorships by Musicians, are there any real world musicians* who are doing that?
