I've never really done anything with the kernel, and at this point it feels kind of overwhelming to start contributing.
I'm sure if I went to the source tree and asked people for a low-hanging-fruit task someone would be kind enough to guide me to get started, but it's still kind of overwhelming to a point where I've just avoided it.
I should probably should stop coming up with excuses and just do it, as I would like to do a lot more with filesystems and having an understanding of the kernel would probably help with that.

https://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ/WhereDoIBegin (and https://kernelnewbies.org/ in general) has some good pointers...
