What are you best at, job wise (within tech)? Not what do you _want_ to do, but what can you most _consistently_ do? I'd suggest concentrating your efforts there.
It does feel like the market is tighter than normal, but I still get recruiters and cold calls, so companies must be still hiring. ("Ouster", for instance, has open positions. I do not work there. There's some entity https://www.a.team/ which could be something, tho I decided not to follow up, got an odd vibe.)
You might have to fall back to ...shudder... retail, I did, much earlier in my career, and was the worst 18 months of my life. Got through it though! So can you. :)
Sometimes it just takes forever, and yeah, getting all the rejections isn't exactly good for self esteem...
