Don't force it. If the itch isn't there, don't scratch it.

Instead, look for things that are interesting to you, follow your passion; if that eventually leads to an OSS project (either your own or helping on an existing one), great! Just avoid toxic startup cultures that require forced OSS track records and then provide "unlimited" vacations.
