They don't take a fee from what I read about it.

> https://docs.github.com/en/sponsors/sponsoring-open-source-c...

> GitHub Sponsors does not charge any fees for sponsorships from personal accounts, so 100% of these sponsorships go to the sponsored developer or organization. The 10% fee for sponsorships from organizations is waived during the beta. For more information, see "About billing for GitHub Sponsors."

GitHub sponsors has been out of beta for a long time, they take 10% of the donations if the code is under an organization which is very common for OSS projects. Of course one of the ways to get around it is to sponsor the lead developer, which is sometimes available as an option. Or just sponsor the developer some other way which doesn't go through Microsoft such as Liberapay or Opencollective.
