Example of absolutely not caring about other people’s opinions, and just liking what’s enjoyable to me: once The Big Bang Theory was over, I kinda had to check out Star Trek out of curiosity. That’s how I more or less binged all of it in chronological order up to the then latest stuff (Disco and Pic S1). I’ve yet to find a Trek I don’t like. Sure, Disco has the main issue of not being episodic and that brings it down the rankings for me. Since Trek turned out to be pretty good actually, that got me to catch up on all the other things I missed when they aired, see SG1, Babylon 5, Quantum Leap, Charmed, Monk, Friends and How I Met Your Mother to name a few. And you know what? I liked them. I liked Morbius (pretty low on the list of superhero movies, but perfectly enjoyable). I liked the Enterprise theme once they sped it up, it ended up going from annoying to hilariously silly. I liked the Suicide Squad game so much that I fell into my usual trap of burning myself out, but I miss the fun banter while traversing the city. I liked the first Destiny, and don’t like the second. I like Ghost Recon Breakpoint, but not Wildlands. You do you, but I enjoy whatever I want, regardless of other people’s opinions on the matter. You’re legion? Hi Legion, I’m dad.
I maintain that it is factually correct that the majority of prior Star Trek fans and overall humans don't like Kurtzman Trek (as shown by the numbers) because it is poorly written, dumb, frantic, etc...
I’ve grown up on TNG and watched everything Trek. I do enjoy the new stuff. Is it silly sometimes and is the writing whacky? Yes of course. But let’s not act as if Trek ever took canon too seriously, and always had impeccable writing. It’s part of it.
It doesn't need to be high art, but Kurtzman Trek isn't even Gossip Girl-level writing, it's disastrous Gossip Girl reboot that got cancelled-level writing.
