In my limited experience, "packages are looking for funding" is displayed after things have successfully installed, it's not an error.

Do you _also_ have an actual error message about the download?

Thank you very much. I was thinking it was an error message but I typed in node-red and got in. I am obviously brand new to this. How do I take down this post since the problem is solved?

No need to take down, you just mark the post as 'solution' which gave you the satisfactory explanation/solution. It would help other people who may stumble upon to similar situation.
