The tasks to perform are viewing ads, playing games, or solving captchas. It is usually intended to market a particular cryptocurrency and get people to know about and probably adopt it. The rewards are minimal but their value can be built up over time when one constantly uses them.

Your explanation clarifies the meaning of Faucets. Another point is that these faucets began spreading back when Bitcoin was cheap, giving people a way to hand away tiny sums to encourage adoption.
Faucet are just for exposure to a crypto project.. The payouts are very tiny, but for someone new to crypto, it is a hands-on introduction. You get to open a wallet, do transactions, and gradually accumulate coins. Over time, these small amounts gain significance in the future.
