I couldn't care less about leetcode, I literally have done less than 10 leetcode exercises in my life. I have been getting hefty pay bumps every 1-2 years since I graduated, and there are no signs that curve is flattening. FOSS / side projects and soft skills seem to be pretty underrated by most developers.

I’m in similar situation… it’s been two years since I graduated from college and I have done literally less than 10 leetcode problems so far… but I do spend a lot of time on my hobby projects and it served me right for getting jobs as a mobile engineer in some good startups.
