To be honest I always thought it's a wasting of time

How can you be sure it isn't?

I've never written anything (besides regular computer programs) that I would call an "Algorithm" - but I work mostly in front-end web dev and UX.

Why do you need to do that stuff?

It depends on the project. I'm also a front-end developer and honestly, I've met some problems, which demand from my knowledge of algorithms. Of course in common, you can meet it rarely, however
it's better to be ready for it.

It's also a good practice, and as you can see "Algorightms" can be a key for the doors in a good company and so on. Anyway, it's hard for me, that why I like it and I want to improve it. Challenges are something that's I always liked.

I would just go on codementor.io, call a friend, or a more senior dev - and have them teach me whatever I need to learn at the time - instead of trying to prepare for every situation. It's much less expensive for everyone involved.
