I know how you feel. I studied piano as a child but I learned a bit of guitar by myself. I often find myself looking up tabs and then switch to learning by ear because not only they are wrong but also "stupid" (as in, use weird and difficult hand positions which don't make any sense). And yeah, pretty much all the main websites try to force you into paying for some service you don't want or need with popups and stuff that you would only see on a torrent search engine. I think the main problem is that most people use tablets/phones to look up songs and so they most likely use Apps or learn from YouTube videos. I find the latter option quite time inefficient.

I have been thinking about implementing a github-style website for tabs but it seems that the interest for tab sites is slowly fading away.

you would be sued into poverty if you launched such a site

This is why tabs are doing badly.

Really think it's a dumb move to sue people for putting out tabs, but there you go .

Didn't even think about the legal aspects :) How do you think tab websites manage it? There are some that have been around for quite some time.
