I just found the character of Picard/Crusher's son so unlikable that I was happy when season 3 ended, but this article does make some good points. I would give anything to see some follow-up for DS9 characters.

Rule 1 — Be Civil, Not Klingon
Engage respectfully with fellow crew members.
- No harassment, brigading, or trolling
- No bigotry (racism, sexism, transphobia, etc.)
- Disagreeing is fine, but personal attacks are not
Rule 2 — Stay On Topic
Posts should be related to Star Trek: news, updates, official announcements, or meaningful discussion.
- Off-topic content may be removed
- Memes should be quarantined under a level 5 containment field to !Risa@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Rule 3 — No Prohibited Content
Some things are not allowed aboard the ship.
- No spam or scams
- No illegal content
- No porn or sexually explicit material
- NSFW content must be properly tagged
Rule 4 — Gatekeeping Is Not Starfleet
You can have your opinions on what counts as “real” Star Trek, but forcing them on others is not allowed.
- Everyone’s perspective is valid, TOS purists and Lower Decks fans alike
- Keep debates about canon and quality friendly and inclusive

To be fair, there have been (at least for me) plenty of unlikable characters who ended up becoming people who I thoroughly loved. Saru from Discovery, Paris from Voyager (and Neelix but that's just me), and especially Barclay in TNG
Lower Decks is the only one of the recent series that should continue.
I wasn’t sure about this, but this article makes some great points. Star Trek Legacy would actually be a pretty kick ass show.
