Hi I’m wondering what I have to do to say I want to work on a bug I’ve searched for this and can’t find anything I don’t know if I was searching for the right thing thanks

If the first "thingy" is too heavy to lift, try a next "thingy".
If also too heavy, try the next. Do know that you learn with each

Just to clarify, have you found a bug that has already been
reported and are you trying to figure out how to claim it, or
are you looking to report a new bug?
