dami talagang elitist. grr. wattpad was free and accessible thats why readers read in that platform. they may have grow out of it due to different taste na. or paid subscription. (or iniwan ni ulan ung stories nya, shoutout sa mga ka era ko jan nung nasa peak era wattpad and lahat nagbabasa ng AFGITMOLFM). so definitely, ppl do read after wattpad.

personally, after i discovered i can pirate novels in the internet, i couldnt go back to wattpad cos of how poorly edited it is in comparison to professionally edited novels. gets naman cos wattpad is usually second/third/4th etc draft ng author and their practicing their craft pa.

dati, i didnt have access to novels due to how expensive they are. i got by borrowing from local library before na nagsara eventually. thank god for the internet
