Sorta controversial opinion
I dropped quite a few mangas and manhwas. It usually because of:
MC gets back together with a character that treated them like trash and humiliates them and/or r@pe them or watches them get r@ped / pushes them past their limits for "punishment" (Usually bad portrayed BDSM).
Hears 'Yes' when MC is saying NO and isn't respecting their boundaries because they know they can get away with it since the MC loves them.
MC can't stand up for themselves and gets put in a relationship that they didn't consent too (sometimes they are to young).
From Rivals to Lovers because one realized they were 'in love' with the other and not jealous or upset.
I also don't like were the MC gets amnesia or memory loss and forget that they are in a DEEP relationship and they forget about Main love interest or the bad things people did to them.
MC is super strong and smart however is easily fooled when it comes to Main Love Interest despite knowing clear facts that they have that side to them.
Annoying b!tches that forces themselves or their ideals on MC (Isekai AND Yaoi).
When all you need is the power of friendship and love instead of combat skill that have be harnessed for YEARS/ EXTREMELY op MC to the point it's dumb i can handle the fact the the MC is an apostle to god and has strong parents giving them strong powers ;but to the point where EVERYONE helps them and gives the MC stuff better than the best is a MARY SUE.
Toxic Love Triangles where the two semes fight for the uke and hurt him in t he process or everyone is SUPER toxic to each other.
Plot is dragged out by introducing new characters/couples so you forget the plot since its been 30 chapters since the MC was seen.
Sometimes the art is blocky and the characters are super flat or have an annoying feature that is always with them.
I've dropped or haven't been able to finish:
Ten Count (Yaoi)
We Only Held Hands (Shounen-Ai)
Love or Hate (Yaoi)
Window to Window (Yaoi)
Last Paradise (Yaoi)
Scandalous M (Yaoi)
The Devil’s Temptation (Yaoi)
I Became the Villain's Mother (Shoujo)
Viewfinder EZ (Yaoi)
Love Shuttle (Yaoi)
Royal Servant (Yaoi)
Talk to Me (Mature Romance)
Shen Yin Wang Zuo (Shounen)
I Fell in Love with My Sister's Boyfriend (Yaoi)
EGOISM (Yaoi)
The Keystone Romantic Combination (Shounen-Ai)
I'm No Match For Him (Yaoi)
(/へ＼*) Its a lot but if it was applied to IRL some of these wouldn't be morally fine and wouldn't happen.

Brooo that entire list is like every chinese manwha ever! Well, most of them. The ones i read xD i swear they piss me off so much
Please share some good ones youve read!! Like Uzamakii said, yaoi standards are really low... Its pretty impossible to find some quality stuff
And that's on dispar.. I can tolerate alot of fucked up thing in yaoi because yaoi standards are pretty shitty but it was the toxic, abusive relationship, weak uke,on top of romanticizing incest couldnt get passed the first few chapters.
And that’s what they call plot ☹
That excludes like 90% of BL, I'm genuinely curious about which ones you liked haha
I agree on bad art being a turnoff though, I feel that never gets brought up enough.
I haven't read most of what you listed, but I'm happy to see there's someone else who thinks Ten Count is terrible too. Kurose is super pushy in a way that's really uncomfortable, and the fact that he approached Shirotani under the false pretence of medical treatment is disgusting. Also his characterization makes no sense, one moment he's super possesive and won't let go of Shirotani for any reason, and the next he's acts all cold and distant and rejects Shirotani's advances. Also Shirotani kinda sucks as a character too, he's not a bad person like Kurose but he's still a bland character, his entire purpose is just being an audience self insert to fuck Kurose.
Sorry it turned into a rant. I really needed to get that out OTL
