Dude your feet are weird

No. The goal of calisthenics was never getting big.
The goal of calisthenics is to get good at calisthenics.

Lift weights then if that's not your goal.

Is it bad to use straps on my 5rm+? I normally hookgrip but after 3pl8 my hookgrip is too weak.

don't have access to a gym

Get a job/move/buy cheap weight set on Craigslist.

Hook grip is basically the same thing as straps except your thumbs are taking the weight rather than a strap.
So yes, you may aswell use straps.

Leg troll thread?

Yes, if you are DYEL now. You can get to ottermode no problem, it's just shit beyond that, and for legs. Barbells will get you further, but bodyweight is far from useless. There's a reason that lifters still do pullups/chinups and dips.

Another option is getting those dumbbell bars that you can put whatever weight on and doing a dumbbell workout.
