Why this game is not fun (for me)

I'm new. I tried this game and at first I really liked it. Then I started playing on the servers. There I lost a lot and a lot, but they (players) helped me and taught me some tricks. Unfortunately, it did not help me and to this day I lose. I believe that this is not only because of my poor playing skills, but also because of the small number of servers, because of professional players who do not want to give in, do not want to play not like a pro. I also create my maps and it brings me pleasure, but when I play against players not of my skill (there are no servers for noobs here), I do not get pleasure. I do not understand how to fix it? I do not understand what is wrong. How to have fun? Maybe there are so many professionals on the servers?
Sorry for my bad English

After all these years I still find enjoyment in making scripts and rarely working on some maps (and even more rarely they get released), I'm not a good player against medium-high skill players but despite this I can still enjoy playing sometime with a friend, no matter what will happen in terms of win/loses, I will continue to laugh at silly random events like the first time I started playing SFD.
The real pleasure is not winning or loosing, what really matter is playing just for fun with people you're comfortable with, if the server players are toxic or rough this won't help at all, all you need to do is to try to play with a good friend, you really need only one, but a good one, that enjoys games like SFD, I survived like so, and when I can't play with him I will limit myself in other previously said activities, plus, I can play with bots to avoid becoming too rusty.

I'm like you, unfortunately tryhards are common in SFD and this can be very annoying (A tryhard is a person that takes too seriously a game and plays in a competitive style). Whenever a tryhard enters a server i just leave and try to find another one and if this doesn't work i play with bots or i enter the map editor and make some maps.

Due to being busy, I hadn’t been able to play for around 3 months. That mixed with an injury to my shoulder and a twitch in my wrist it is quite hard to get my groove back. It is frustrating, however that new drive to get back to my previous state is keeping me from quitting. I recommend setting a goal for yourself. It will help you have more of a desire to play.

I never played Superfighters competitively. Rarely ever do I play to win. Honestly, this game is best enjoyed if you treat it like Gang Beasts, for example. Sure, you can delve into the serious fighting aspect of it, but there's nothing more enjoyable than hopping on Discord with some friends and having a good time. If you've watched my videos (I'll leave a link below. It follows the rules because it's related to the topic!), you'll know I love blowing up. Not even blowing up others and claiming victory, but seeing my character fly across the map. It's just hilarious to me. Dumb fun, cheap thrills, what more do you need in a game? Things like deathrun are beyond enjoyable.
I don't know, man, but I say stay out of the competitive scene. It may be fun to you, but it really is one of the most toxic communities I've seen. To be completely honest, I'm extremely isolated from the SFD community because of that fact. I was talking to someone on Discord the other day and we really don't play the same game. He enjoys insulting those he beats, and I love tackling my enemy into acid, even though I die, too.

You're welcome to play with me if you'd like.

In game there are no dedicated servers for new players who barely understand the game, most players are skilled and servers for "new players" are very scarce and turn out to be high ping. I could recommend you that may be an map maker, script creator, SFD drawing artist or try to make friends (not everyone are bad) and make funny moments with them.

Well, hello there Armolitskiy, you know who I am and what Im capable of. Yes, sfd community mostly consists of veterans who started playing this game from 2015 or earlier and become server hosts over the years, you should learn how to accept your defeat. There is no way to win every single match (atleast if you playing against mediocre or good players). Also, you mention that "professional players who do not want to give in", im not going to speak for everybody, only for myself. In my case, I just got used to repeat my combo's and I cant force myself to play in other way, believe me I want to give others chance but I just cant. Even in my 1000+ hours (700 steam and 300 early versions) I still can be easily defeated by other veterans. Your only way to "fix" your problem is to train, it might take days, weeks or even months.

Spoken like a true Superfighter. I don't like to give in either, especially to other players who get mad when they loose. They have to improve, not quit.
Also, it takes
