Hello, so I've been watching and enjoying this community. I remember watching various different seasons/generations as a child and I liked them. I'm sure there is a lot I missed and figured I need a new hyperfixation. As an adult I've only watched the original series when it was on Netflix. I remember a lot of Picard, and some with the woman captain. (Probably more, but I've done too many drugs between them and now)

So, as someone with a basic/broad understanding of Star Trek, where should I start my dive into this show?

I would start with TNG and, despite how rough it is, watch the first season. There's some gold in there. And some god-awful shit I won't deny it. It has a huge jumping quality in season 2 though. After that I would go with DS9 and that's pretty damn good from the beginning but then gets infinitely better as time goes on

TNG season one is like beautiful scenery along a terrible road. At times you wonder why you're driving down it but then you remember.

Season two they switch to a gravel road. It's still not the best experience but it's easier to watch what you came to see.

By season three the road has gotten smooth but you wouldn't have the same appreciation if you'd just turned on to the road then.
