Are there any ways to contribute to FOSS developers other than paying? I would really like to help/contribute but unfortunately have no regular income so no way to do so monetarily.

Documentation is sorely lacking in many different open source projects. Often just making sure the documentation is up-to-date is very helpful

Came to share this.

As an engineer, I'm so exhausted that documentation is usually the last thing I work on, if I even get there. Or if I do write docs, they're written haphazardly that the average person has to piece together everything.

Vteers who help with documentation are a godsend.
