You're taking a personal feeling and extrapolating onto others. Not everybody finds sitting on leetcode 3 hours a day a fun task. I'm one of those people. It's absolutely mind numbing.

A few hundred coding challenges is months and months of preparation if you're actually trying to internalize everything very well. Kudos to those who can do it and have the willpower to, but I can't seem to get past 3 weeks tops before my body starts physically rejecting these problems.

It also seems to skew towards recent grads and single people that can spend all of that time on these problems.
