If you did that for money - that's OK. However if you love programming but aren't good at it - quitting is not the right move. I'm constant under-performer who failed to get a degree and failed many projects after that. I wouldn't even try visiting sites like Leetcode because I need no confirmation for my miserable level of proficiency. Still there's a tech boom worldwide and there are so many jobs that even under-performers have plenty of chances. You just need to be in one of (many) places that has lot's of jobs.
Right now the system is rigged in your favor. Interviewing is an art and not a science - you just need resilience to get through. Every article out there seems to be about solving some hard problems, but the bulk of the industry is glorified CRUD (web)apps - you can do it. Instead of doing something that you love and learning to live with a failure you're setting yourself up for a job you'll likely hate for the rest of your life.
