I've reported one bug to HackerOne so far, which was a bug with Wordpress that allowed you to access the title of unpublished posts. Months went by with no reply, despite clear demonstrations of how it could be exploited.
Eventually I demonstrated the attack on Techcrunch's site to a Techcrunch reporter, showing him the titles of their upcoming news stories for the coming week, including embargoed news. They got in touch with HackerOne/Wordpress and it finally got resolved a month or two later.
I don't feel like HackerOne added anything positive to the mix, other than a layer of confusion/delay.
