I was self employed as a software developer for the first part of 2021, then I was W2 employed until February 2022, before self employed again.

How should I answer "I started Software development in 2022."?

Yes.

If you filed a Schedule C for the same work, do NOT check the box. According to Schedule C instructions: "If you started or acquired this business in 2022, check the box on line H. Also, check the box if you are reopening or restarting this business after temporarily closing it, and you did not file a 2021 Schedule C for this business."
