Honestly, it sounds like you bought into the 1337code culture too fully. It's a practice website for certain types of questions, it's not teaching you how to provide business value to companies. You can practice your technical skills and do mock interviews, but if that's all your doing, it won't make your resume look better and it won't make your soft-skills and industry-knowledge better. Future employers want to see evidence you did the job before, which means it's tough to bust into the career path, but also means if you CAN bust in and hang in there, you'll have a good career path in future.

Consider the following alternative scenario: instead of leetcode, what if you focused all of your efforts on finding ANY programming job? You've obviously been practicing coding for a long time, even if you're not a 10X hardcore engineer, you can still find orgs who need help with their code.

So, IMO, you may as well keep sending out coding job apps. You may not score a FAANG position, but you may make a decent living in your chosen profession. Sure, you may not get to use cutting edge methods or innovative libraries, but you'll help others with your coding ability, for instance, consider all the mom and pop websites out there that look terrible and perform terribly. Those sites are an opportunity for you or for me, less talented and gifted people, to provide value where the rock stars wouldn't deign to work.
