The main problem is visibility for essential packages that are used as dependencies and are hard to "see" from the point of view of the end-user. I don't do "heavy" JavaScript programming and whenever I am working on a larger project that runs on Node, the configuration is done by someone else.
The GitHub Sponsors program looks like a step in the right direction, but I haven't researched it enough to have an informed opinion about it.
I am curious to see what npm comes with - they are uniquely positioned to have maximum impact.
