I've seen stuff like simple typos that would be really quick to fix in some open source projects, but then I start wondering if it's just going to be seen as one of those "cheap" contributions and choose to leave it. Having never contributed to open source, I sort of feel like I should prove my worth by contributing something that takes a bit more effort before feeling comfortable going for the lowest hanging of fruit (I don't mean a huge feature or anything, but maybe something that involves some actual coding vs a typo in documentation or in a variable name). Typing it out I realize this sounds kind of silly...
