If you value your anonymity, you will not be able to use most popular communication platforms in the coming months. It’s a perfect storm for invasion of privacy in the USA right now. Learning to code allows you to build and use your own tools. Does this make sense?

We are already flooded with bad coders who went to bootcamps because money. We need way less coders. Do something useful that you enjoy instead.

I disagree.
No matter how many coders exist, you always need to pay attention to quality. If there are lots of coders out there, finding a few good ones shouldn’t be hard.

Inexperienced coders can still contribute even if they don’t write anything big. FOSS needs all kinds of contributions.

finding a few good ones shouldn’t be hard

Ha, good one.

Every good programmer was once part of the crowd that you’re looking down on.
