A linked list is your litmus test? You did qualify with your "leetcode" blurb, but last I've used one was in college 30y ago and never again. We are not all kernel hackers / bare to the metal here.

What would be a reasonable question, that’s similar difficulty as implementing a linked list ?
We have tried other questions as well, with similar results but perhaps our questions are outdated ?
Depend what your company actual does. More relevant tasks I have seen involve 2D arrays or transforming data from a Python dict, or parsing JSON. The idea is to test the ability to understand and manipulate complex objects, which is a good generic bar.
