I know micropayments is a bad word, but a centralized nonprofit where I could pay 50$ a month to distribute amongst projects I use and their dependencies would be great. Disregarding any privacy concerns of course, as they would have to track all or most of the applications I use and for how long.
I know about that and use it for some projects, but it’s still the hassle of donating to individual projects and small payments have disproportionally higher fees (I’m not blaming them it just is like that)
Yeah the problem with that model is the overhead to pick who gets the money would cut in to much. My thought is you want it you buy it. They could do it like humble bundle and have a slider to pay more if you want.

Liberapay might interest you. Not quite the same but maybe close enough
