Is anyone aware of examples of research software projects successfully (or not) using micro-funding such as online tip jars, github sponsorship or similar?

Can research institutions even make use of funds in this way?

Can researcher users even make donations like this (other than from their own pockets)?

Could a project make up enough funding to provide any meaningful support? Or are they mostly too small?
