You should remember that whenever you see things people put out, you're usually seeing their best, most polished work. It's true that if you follow hn for example you'll see lots of impressive work done by really motivated and talented people. This, however, is the tip of the tip in many ways. Don't judge yourself harshly and try to detach from comparisons with the world. In your spare time do whatever you find meaningful because of the thing itself, not because of how impressive it is. Also note that building things, even if they're basic, is more motivating and useful than going over endless tutorials, wiki pages, online courses etc. And again, do what is meaningful to you, not what is fashionable or impressive to strangers, hn, recruiters etc.
