I think there is a deep need for someone to create a page listing all the ways someone can help seperated by the media type.

The previous generations of pirates who contribute is becoming too old to sustain, we need a new generation of pirates to keep piracy going for more time.

All the guides are for lurkers but there is no guides/ pages for providers.

The loss of generational knowledge is a very real concern (in tech, not just piracy) that nobody talks about. I am genuinely concerned for the future of major Linux distros, for example.

I've wanted to contribute code to open source projects for years at this point but looking at the code just seems so daunting. I've only contributed things like icons, translations and map data in OSM. I did start working at my first job this week as a software developer, so I hope I'll get more experience in working with existing projects.
