Once I was exactly like you described: "people who want FOSS everything but they contribute nothing". Indeed, it was really bothering me to not contribute anything, but the reason was I didn't have much confidence about my skills. I slowly break that barrier of lacking confidence.

If there are people out there like who I was, please just go and commit anything on any project, whatever it is, doesn't matter.

I can’t wait till I am as confident as you sir. Till then, I may try updating documentation to help out

Documentation is a super important job!!! 🎉🎉🎉

So are translations. Quite a few apps benefit from translations, so if you speak two or more languages helping in translation is very easy.
