Other people have said it, the problem with concrit is that often what passes as concrit is in fact not actually that helpful giving you a path towards improvement.

This doesn't mean that you are helpless and can't improve. It does mean that you need to be more proactive in improving.

Decide what it is that you want to do with your writing. "Be good." Is too vague a goal. Do you want your fic to have more emotional impact? Do you want it to be more philosophically sound? More nuanced? Do you want your prose to be more more evocative?

Find a person whose writing has the qualities you want in your writing to have and study them. Look at what they are doing. What tropes are they using? What kind of language? Compare them with someone who doesn't have the quality you like and see the differences. Make a conscious effort to put those elements into your fic, now that you've identified what they are.

You can do it, but you have to improve your own eye.
