I think a big thing is also the fact that many devs are self-educated and there is no requirement for formal education, leading to the feeling of "anyone could do this, so it's like a glorified hobby", I think that's an essential factor.

Definitely, as I mentioned in another comment, this has been the primary source of impostor syndrome in my case.

Also comparing to the wrong people, if you compare yourself to others, that is.
