Re:Show HN: Gittask – Get Paid to Work on Open Source by nicolasehrhardt on Thursday January 15, 2015 @04:20PM (#8895433)
I was actually delighted to read a blog post explaining that some people actually live off gittip these days[1]. I hope that these guys can make it even easier for developers to live off of open-source work.

Note: I wish the y=10% bounty for the top x contributors could be adjustable (depending on the size of the project 10% could be a lot, you may also want to adjust x).
