> I put all my eggs in the “being a programmer” basket and it’s clearly not for me

If you are sure you don’t want to be a programmer, then don’t be one.

Your degree shouldn’t pigeonhole you. If you are a recent graduate, you have plenty of eggs for whichever basket you choose.

Edit: what about data science? There are plenty of jobs available. Some might be based on coding, but others are based on maths, and others based on having a good business sense. It’s a diverse field which is in vogue and could allow you to pivot your career.
