In 2018 there were about 3 marathons of 4 episodes, each one followed by several months hiatus. The summer break lasted 5 months, so it was impossible to keep large audience. In my opinion, people from Disney have only themselves to blame.

Absolutely. I think, after the first half season, they essentially pulled all but the necessary resources and deprioritized the show. They stopped caring about viewership and simply continued the show so they could sell toys and merch.
