I have always wondered why don't they charge at least based on storage or so? Maybe above a basic/generous tier? I mean if I'd love to pay a few USD a year for say a few tiny repos that no uses other than me, and a static landing page (like Github Pages) that no one visits except me (every few months; maybe a recruiter or two, though I seriously doubt that). I'd rather pay a place like Codeberg than Github. From latter for such basic offerings I'd expect free services, yup! (Because I already pay them in other ways, like my data and all that.. but that's really beside the point). As for funding or becoming a member, I am not there yet and also that is not regular enough for me, that is not streamlined for me personally.
How… why… what? Let's say it's like.. well… I don't know.. anyway.. people (esp. from USA), please don't be offended (discussion on this topic has felt like we are from different planets), I'd rather pay a simple restaurant bill where 2Y tip is mandatorily part of the bill than a Y tip that I would "leave at the table" or "drop in a tip jar" or "generously" "hand it" (or slip it) to the staff. I have lots of problems with the latter but let's not get into that here anyway.
