Ask HN: Would issue “bounties” make contributing to open source more appealing?
There have been countless FOSS-centric bounty sites since the late 1990s. They never took off in a significant way and now people are using subscription-based platforms like Patreon and Liberapay: https://github.com/uraimo/awesome-software-patreons/
I guess in hindsight one could say that bounties are too messy while a subscription-based approach is much clearer (less managing overhead etc.).
Quoting from https://wiki.snowdrift.coop/market-research/history/software
"Many bounty sites have been tried over many years. Some sites that have come and gone: The Free Software Bazaar, CoSource, Fundry, Public Software Fund, BountyOSS, BitKick, COFundOS (which alled users to place bounties for new applications as well as for changes to existing programs), Opensourcexperts.com, Donorge, Bountycounty, Bounty Hacker, microPledge, FundHub (some unrelated site uses that name now, not surprisingly), GitBo, Catincan, DemandRush, and Open Funding (broken though the main domain openinitiative.com still exists) — and probably others we never discovered. GNOME and Launchpad each made attempts at supporting bounties but that never came to anything substantial. FOSS Factory (which is still live but has had no activity for years) bothered writing their own essay on the history of other failed bounty sites."
