For example, I recently formulated for myself the idea of a device that I would be interested in making (fortunately, it is not very complicated in terms of circuitry and software), but it turns out that it already exists, and even open. And so with almost everything.

There are 4 options:
1) Be glad that it’s already done and don’t waste time
2) Take the time anyway and make it worse or better, well, like experience is all business
3) Start thinking about the next project / idea
4) Start drinking with grief and blame everyone/competitors for their failures

Ideas without implementation are worth nothing. Therefore, as Crash said , there are exactly two options:
- score,
- implement better.

I rejoice when everything is already done, but I do not despair when I have to do it myself.

You don't have to look at others. Do your own and qualitatively) The competition is even a plus)

Apparently, you are rather weak with imagination or your needs are not very specific. Be glad that all this is already there, start implementing the finished one.
For example, I have the opposite. A sea of ideas, the implementation of which in devices I need, and which have not been implemented by anyone, but there is not enough time for all this. That's it, sadness.

I'll say more, I'm finishing my Bachelor of Engineering. informatics. And so, as a topic for work, a project was invented. Over the weekend, on my knees, I assembled a fully working prototype. And in a week I'll find out what is already there. Despite this, I did not leave this business. And in addition to defending a diploma, I hope someone will use it. Despite all this, it was a very valuable experience.
Yes, and then. The telephone was also invented. And there is also a bank, what for do others open? Because to each his own.
