Youre flexing the rest of your body try pushing your shoulders out and imagine you are doing the final bit of a pulldown or pullup at highest contraction

All I can say is make sure ur hitting thoracic and iliac regions
2 sets of lat pulldowns
2 sets of a single arm 45 degree lat row

That twice or 3 times a week will grow them

3x8-12 of wide grip (specifically wide grip) pull ups & then lat pull downs to finish them off. If they don't grow after doing that then they just weren't meant to grow.

They will always grow, but some body parts obviously don't respond as well as others. My pecs were always lacking for this very reason. Either add more volume, add weights, or hit the lats more often.

Calisthenics mog hard. I love dips & pull ups. What sport do you mainly play?

I'm telling you focus on doing specifically wide grip pull-ups. Lat pulldowns are good if you're heavier, but pull-ups will always mog lat pull downs imo.

Maybe I am just overthinking it, i compared photo from a month ago and today and it seems like my lats are growing but slow
