    Glad to hear you’re giving it all a genuine try.

    Most of it is no less great on average than 90s Trek. Just different.

    It’s unfortunate many longtime fans weren’t willing to give it a chance to find its groove, much the same as the TOS fans resisted giving TNG a chance.

    TNG’ first season and much of the second were rough, but it was a personal risk to stand up at a Star Trek Con in 1989 and say you were a TNG fan. By 1993, when DS9 was running too, everyone at cons were TNG fans too.

    As a long haul fan who saw this happen then, I’ve found it sad to see Trek fandom repeating the cycle.
