Ditto. I also try to file good, clean bug reports with detailed repro steps where I hit them. Not just "it's busted, fix it". I'd love to contribute actual code, because I'd like to think I'm a really good programmer (been coding professionally for decades), but actually fully getting a hosted Masto instance up to the point where you can edit the code and see it live is a freaking nightmare.
