dunno brotherman. my experience on both sh and rr was very positive. youre treating readers as if they are a hivemind. and i have to say, the way you write (in this thread) is quite unpleasant. it comes off as arrogant and condescending. maybe that's why you're not getting engagement
you need to explicitly ask for reader opinion. repeatedly and consistantly. authors are fragile and are prone to mental breakdowns at the lightest brush with critisim. readers have learned to avoid the headache and just say nothing
