How did you start ? plz help
My lats are so undertrained to the point that when i do pull ups its mostly my shoulders and arms doing the work that I don't feel it in my lats at all
Try to get a doorframe pullup bar at home and vary your grip style and width.
Do easy sets, like 1-3 every thirty minutes all day
Do 3 max effort sets on some days.

I think I've actually stopped caring too.
You're probably pointing your elbows inwards, try to keep them in the horizontal line your torso is.
Another exercises that helped my lats greatly was the pull over.
maybe that was the real gain
