I think contributing is the easy part, it's finding something that you want to contribute to that's difficult. I think I figured out a solution to that which usually comes down to "what packages am I using in all my projects?" and right there in your dependencies there's always a library or the overarching framework you're using that could use some help with fixing bugs. So that's a tip for someone that's looking for things to contribute to that are within your domain and not just a random package/framework that you have no idea about or ever used.
