One thing I have noticed in opensource projects is very often a lack of proper, well written technical documentation. Very likely some of the same developers who you are looking up to are stressed and having issues finding time (or the words) to express how the software/hardware is used to make things easy for the end user. Some of these projects are used to do very important things in the world. Joining up with a project which is attempting to do something you feel strongly about and seeing how the users and devs are gaining from your often overlooked work can be a very good boost to well being. Nobody is unimportant. Everyone makes an impact.
