Meh, I can't respect these frauds who call themselves authors but just deliver shoddy fanfictions. Maybe they should just refer to themselves as writers or something demeaning. They're clearly an eyesore to everyone.

The problem with AO3 is that the site is designed for one-shots. Posting long works with many chapters is a pain for both the writer, who knows most people won't reach the end, and the reader, who might not ever realize new chapters are up. Sites like RR, Webnovel, and ScribbleHub are much more user-friendly for long works where the author is going to continually write more as time goes on. Other sites have other downsides: RR has temperamental mods that will ban people who have broken no rules; Webnovel encourages people to translate your story and pass it off as their own in other languages; and ScribbleHub does not allow translations (mainly to prevent all the nefarious stuff that happens on Webnovel) and is an English-only site (to effectively moderate with their small team).
