Man, I completely feel you on this. And I don't think you're being ungrateful. If the available fic isn't exploring the characters/ships/themes you want to see explored, then it's understandable you'd be disappointed.

I'd just be grateful if there was new fic that didn't focus on pointless shipping. Try and have the characters having a new adventure, cuddling on the couch for ten hours because the ex-marine tough guy got a scraped knee and needed to cry over it does not count as an adventure.

I'm going through this in my current fandom right now, so I feel your pain OP.

Booyah, I understand this totally.

I actually saw a Yuletide request not long ago for a really really tiny/obscure fandom (where I have literally written half the fic posted for it)... but what was the ONLY THING they didn't want? You guessed it, the one minor (canon) couple that is one of only 2 ironclad OTPs I've ever had.

McShep, the super-rare pairing of the SGA fandom...

These days it's pretty rare. Unless you want to read two line stories on Tumblr where the only resemblance to the characters is the names, or short stories where they behave like kids out of High School.

THISS! I swear I'm like an old granny in my rocking chair, but it feels like fic was so much more in character back in yon days of yore. What's up with all these teen writers and their OOC-ness? This seems to happen with a lot of fandoms nowadays (hello SPN!) and I've def noticed it in SGA too.

Have you thought of prompting for your particular dynamic and pairing? Or even approach a writer you do like that comes close and ask them personally to write you something with that dynamic and pairing? They'd probably be really chuffed, especially if you couched it the right way. We writers are suckers for compliments. :*)

I too belong to a tiny, closed fandom, and the lack of variety is desperately sad. Pretty much gave up on writing or reading because the scope has narrowed over time to a monodiet of juggernautslashsnugglefic. Zzzzzz....

McShep fic is still being written anon, if you like that ship! I can't speak to other ships, however, since the one pictured is my OTP and I read nothing else. I'm sorry you're feeling unsatisfied :(
