In bug bounty hunting-related communities - Discord, Reddit etc - I keep seeing people suggesting to look for bugs, or even look for/focus on a specific class of bugs.

IMO that can lead to waste of time and lost opportunities depending on the type of target. I'd say, instead: stop looking for bugs. Start looking for *features* nobody documented, or features that were just added or changed very recently and invest time in understanding them well and looking for ways to abuse them.

New functionality may be overlooked by some hunters, and undocumented API endpoints or features - that's where the gold is in my opinion and the reason why it's beneficial to monitor the target company's changelogs or release notes. Even if a new feature *is* documented, it may still hide some aspects of it that are not and are worth investigating.
