I'm a decent developer, but with only a couple years' professional experience and no formal training. I'm looking for open source projects to contribute to (ideally pick one or two and get dedicated to them).

I'm open to small or large projects.

I'm using this as my source of options:

But I'm curious if there are other ones, or if you all have ideas about which ones are needing and deserving help.

Thanks!

When taking a broad longterm view, clearly Peertube and/or other video hosting and sharing alternatives to Youtube are the most strategically important since as bad as centralization/enclosure of the commons is for various mediums of online communities, the process is wholely complete in a good chunk of the world for informational videos with Youtube utterly dominating.

It is easy to underestimate how powerful of a fulcrum Youtube is for leveraging manipulation and control.

I have no idea if Peertube needs development help (I assume they likely do) and I am not sure what specifically the kinds of things they need help with are, so I say this more as a general observation.
