The video discusses where to find open source projects to contribute to.
The GitHub Octaverse Report and websites like

provide lists and rankings of companies and projects active in open source.
Many large tech companies, like Microsoft and Google, have active open source ecosystems.
The GitHub trending pages can help you discover new and interesting projects that are gaining popularity.
Don't limit yourself to one type of project or technology; contributing to a variety of projects will broaden your skills and experience.
