Actually curious, how often do you find uses for LeetCode patterns in your actual work?

In web development, you mostly deal with data, sometimes you need to group that data, and some of these algos can help with that.

Most useful when you work with large datasets, if you can reduce a workload that takes hours into minutes or less, congrats, otherwise, you are forced to wait the hours. Either way, job security.
