Third Product Released; How to capture value from open source projects?

Just released my third Figma plugin today (https://www.figma.com/community/plugin/1223066860142873673/Inspector) . It's a tool to help you inspect & search through Figma easier. It's a product mainly geared towards Figma plugins developers to help them build and debug how their plugins are interacting with Figma faster. My plan is to open source this tool on github, and put in a donation button. I'm received some positive feedback on my previous plugin (https://www.figma.com/community/widget/1225499170325764543/Linear-Ticket-Sync) that some users would be willing to pay for it if there were some additional features. Curious if any one has any ideas on how to generate revenue on these kind of open source projects where users have feature requests.
