GitHub Sponsors has transitioned from beta to general availability, now accessible to developers with bank accounts in 30 countries, with plans to expand further. The program has experienced significant growth since its beta launch, engaging tens of thousands of developers within the GitHub community. Open source developers have made remarkable strides using sponsorships, and GitHub has incorporated numerous features requested by beta users. Efforts are ongoing to enhance sponsorship experiences globally, and developers in countries not yet supported can join a waitlist for updates. GitHub plans to broaden availability, gather user feedback, and refine tools to better connect developers with their communities.
