I understand what you mean. I think every new platform must proof ​ itself in a certain matter of time. Also, ​this platform is not finished and needs many improvements. On the other way, ​I​ think, that if you are delivering good content its a matter of time, that real follower are coming, who are following you of your content and not because they expect that you follow them back. I think one important thing as an ​author here is to be patient. Nothing grows from now to tomorrow​, everything​ needs time.
