    For some reason the TNG and VOY writers decided to make Q evil-ish in the late TNG years. What is a complete change of character, because he is clearly a fan of humanity on his first appearances.

      They got old, started creaking and found the taste bitter. It’s personal experience leeching into their characters and their stories. And I’d say the writers themselves, knowingly or not, lost that feeling over time.
