@dansup I get it. I'm also self-taught and it took a long time until I was willing to post any of my source code publicly. I also shudder when I see source code I wrote much earlier in my career.

@dansup A lot of people use things you created or helped to create every single day. That is not ordinary. You are awesome!

@dansup I'm not a developer, but I get imposter syndrome in my profession as well. I think (hope) that it goes away eventually.
Pixelfed was my introduction to the fediverse. It is a great project and a great platform, that does exactly what I need it to do. Just keep doing what you are doing 😄
My hat is off to you, for running such a great project that so many people enjoy to use.

You are doing fine.
And you have accomplished more than a lot of people with formal computer science degrees.
(I.e., you have, by yourself, created multiple applications that people use! Most don't do that much.)
Don't worry what others think.
