Is Lemmy a good place to share personal projects and art? (sh.itjust.works)

I noticed that a lot of the posts on Lemmy are news, memes, and interesting discussions. I like the regular flow of content we have, and I find a lot of it engaging.

However, maybe it's just me, but I haven't seen a lot of people sharing projects that they personally worked on, be it art, games, programs, music, etc. I've been working on a programming project for a year now, and I've thought about sharing it on Lemmy to see what people think of it, but the lack of projects from other people deters me. My imposter syndrome also kicks into high gear and tells me that my creations just aren't good enough to be on Lemmy, and I shouldn't taint people's feeds with my mediocre endeavors; after all, I and plenty of other people are enjoying the content here as-is.

So, I'm interested to hear about others' perspectives: Would you like to see more user-created projects and art, or would you prefer to primarily see more news and focused discussions instead?

I rarely even look at the sublemmy or whatever we are calling it. I have it on All and just browse new, top, etc. Whatever.

I'm surprised it hasn't devolved into 4chan yet tbh.
