Very nice list... I do wonder how much money the author/contributors make by having Tuple's ad at the top of this popular readme file.

It’s a time-bounded experiment with sponsorship (3 months) and it earned me roughly a 1 month rent (before tax)

thank you for the transparency in your comment.

I spent some time looking into prices, and there are repos that have a tiered system with sponsorship

The top tier is 1000$/m sponsorship , for which you get a larger size of the company logo showed on top of the repo
