Interesting... Yeah I didn't realize so many of these sites exist. Something seems to be preventing them (or especially one) to really gain prominence and name recognition. My suspicion is that people contributing to open source don't really just contribute randomly. It is most likely that they use a library or repo and then they end up on the "issues" page because they had a problem themselves. It's at this point where I would imagine one is most likely to convert into actually picking up an issue and when notice of a "bounty" might push someone over the fence (?)
