    Maybe it’s simply that the format changes a lot.

    TNG is much different from TOS and some people don’t like that style.

    I can honestly say that I find Discovery extremely frantic, boring and way too contemporary, but that’s just my expectation towards Trek. Others have different tastes.

        I’d argue that there are different categories of Trek-feel. TOS is different from TNG and DS9, and the “new Treks” are different from those TNG/DS9.

        The new Treks are all much more modern and contemporary. The production styles are completely different, the underlying topics are much closer to reality. It is a completely different category of show, that just happens to take place in the same universe.

        Whether that’s a good thing or not, is up to debate. But arguing that “this is not my Trek anymore” is invalid, is just wrong.

      extremely frantic

      Yes! I didn’t know what was wrong with it but that’s it. It’s like a movie trailer where they put everything in to get viewers to watch the movie but it’s 50 minutes long.
