Congrats!

I got my first GitHub Sponsor the other day and even though it is just $1 / month it made me feel like a rockstar. Also I got $3 on BuyMeACoffee a few months ago and it was wonderful.

Keep up the good work.

I definitely agree. From a different perspective, I have a few free albums on Bandcamp under a Creative Commons BY-SA, just as a side project. Getting $5 or $20 here or there is really nice — it makes me feel like someone found my music worthwhile to them, which is a good feeling.

I can only imagine how you feel. I find music so much harder than programming and I feel incredibly happy when someone enjoys my guitar playing (I am just a beginner really). You must be really good.
