Codechef's stars not as credible as codeforces ranks?

Just started competitive programming and loving it so far , but I chose codechef over codeforces, because it looked "cleaner" to me. But I've been reading a lot of posts/comments on various sites about how codeforces is better or how codeforces has more competition etc. i was fully motivated to grind codechef to reach 5 stars, but now not so much, i even paid annual subscription on cc. Reading all that makes me think that even if reach 5 stars+ , i still won't be considered a "great" programmer. Am I wrong? Should I shift and focus on codeforces? Or I'll be fine if I just stick to codechef?
