Engagement really does depend on the platform you post on. For example, people on AO3 absolutely devoured chasing the sky, wattpad liked it quite a bit, while it's totally cold on fimfiction. Very different numbers, but exactly the same writing. It goes to show that stats don't always reflect how good your story/writing actually is. If I had only posted on fimfic I would have been demoralised af. Getting your story to the right audience is probably a combination of understanding the platform's tastes/algorithm + luck. Don't give up. :>
