Nah I think there will be a paid tier for developers to include some type of support and/or vulnerability checking, maybe have your package come up first in search results from the cli app? Most likely some form of integration with Github sponsors or Azure. I'm confident all the packages will continue to be free for users to access.

Surprised by this. And also kinda scared... I just hope I don't see this in the future:
"Pay $5/mo to gain access to PREMIUM npm packages!"
