Same here - 12y. I've learned so much and one day hope to contribute back something significant to the community but haven't found a footing just yet.

You don’t have to contribute something significant. I don’t think it’s about how much one contributes, or now important it is. If you have an opinion - give it. If you have a question - ask it. If you have a criticism - tell it (respectfully). I often get the most out of HN when I’m asking questions. The best part about this place is that people answer them. Or gives you the background context that wasn’t in an article.
This post is a good start!
