Similar experience as a few before. Good spot but took some time, after 2h and many cars that passed I found a truck directly to Sarajevo. For trucks to stop I recommend standing on the little island before the gas station (and not the parking lot). Friday 8amrating: 4/5, wait: 120 min, ride: 88 km ↗

The spot is five star. Plenty of space to pull over, good visibility. Tons of slow traffic. The people? Hmmmmm...With such a good spot and tons of traffic, all of which was going towards sarajevo, I may have had high expectations, but it turned into a 2.5 hour wait, which considering just how many cars where passing and how good the spot was, felt a little excessive.
The thing which was properly demoralising though, was the fact that almost nobody smiled or waved or acknowledged me like in normal countries. Everyone seemed to hate their lives and treated the lone hitchiker shivering in the snow with total apathy. I got lots of frowns and cold hard stares. I agree with the other comment at the gazprom spot (free wifi btw) Nobody here seems to give a damn about hitchikers.
All was well as eventually I did get picked up by the biggest gigachad on the planet (they spoke perfect english too) and had an awsome ride straight to sarajevo, but still I found the way people looked at me here unlike anywhere else in the world, and pretty unexpected. If you want to hitchike to sarajevo, make sure you be ok with waiting, and getting ignored/frowned at a lot. Hopefully it'll be better for you though :)

I think I was lucky to get a ride, because the spot wasn’t really good and I checked on the map, there is better spots in Mostar. But, for sure, this is the main road to go to the south (Croatia) or to the north (Sarajevo).rating: 2/5, wait: 40 min, ride: 91 km ↗

The first toll booth leaving Zagreb. Great spot for Serbia or Bosnia & Herzegovina. We got a ride straight to Sarajevo from here. Sign recommended. Took a Bolt to here so not the easiest or cheapest spot to get to.rating: 4/5, wait: 15 min

Konic-Sarajevo: 5 minute wait time. Nice small spot for cars to stop. Plenty of traffic. Driver wasn't actually going to Sarajevo but around it. Still offered to bring me to a streetcar stop. Bosnian people are great :)―Anonymous, June 2016
