Yes and it's great.
Take the adhd pacing and the bad storylines of the recent shows, and set it behind low quality poor wubzy wildcrats style animation.
Why are you the kind of person who doesn't like seeing others having fun without you?
Sounds like something someone who hasn't actually watched the show would say.
Most modern Trek is not worth watching, IMO, but Lower Decks is so much more than just another modern Trek show. It's a perfect blend of old Trek nostalgia and modern comedy. Its writers are clearly huge Trek fans, as the show is very respectful of Trek tropes and often references fairly obscure lore.
In short: your opinion is wrong. /s
Try watching it with an open mind (as any person who truly appreciates the core of Star Trek philosophy would) and you'll probably find that you really like it.
How dare you
