Nope.

All the information is available on the site, free, no tricks, no nothing.

But while you're on the site, you also happen to be exposed to the "this is donation-supported, please consider buying me a burger" thing.

It's a matter of intent and structure. You could do something sorta like that which was sleazy and really trying to charge for an addon, or you could just play it legit, make everything free, and hope your site causes people to send you money.
