GitHub Sponsors: Boosting Open Source Developers' Income

GitHub Sponsors: I'm exploring how to increase my monthly sponsorship. Researching and publishing findings as a series of posts on DEV.to. Check out my previous post "Looking Back on Two Years of GitHub Sponsors" for insights.

GitHub Sponsors was launched five years ago. For several years it was available only in a limited number of countries, but two years ago I could also join. I got a few sponsors, but nothing substantial came out of it. Now I'd like to invest some time an energy understanding it and trying to figure out how could I increase the monthly sponsorship I receive.
For this I am going to do some research and publish my findings as a series of posts here on DEV.to.
