Is consistently holding angles in this game possible? Need advice.

I'm still relatively new to the game. Been playing for about 2 months. I had 1,000 hours in CS so I'm not new the genre. Been having fun with the game but my issues with peekers advantage and the extremely slow tagging speed have been making it rather hard to adjust.

One thing I've been noticing recently is I feel like I cannot hold an angle. I'll get wide-peeked and then insta headshotted, not really having enough time to adjust my crosshair. But then the next round I'll aim a little further from the corner, and then I get get peeked closer to the corner. Should I even be trying to hold an angle at all? I actually find myself trying to play against a wall and peeking the attackers even when I'm defending now, since peeking seems to be more advantageous than holding the angle.

Also, is there any advice on holding angles when defending/post-plant? I feel like every site has almost no place to play safely; I feel exposed in every position unless I have controllers walling everything off. I actually find myself preferring to play off site sometimes and retaking it so I can peek angles on the people holding them lol.
