to get back into Star Trek I would recommend either Strange New Worlds or Lower Decks. Strange New Worlds is Star Trek heart and soul. Lower Decks is a comedy but also does a great job capturing the heart and soul of Star Trek.

I'm the same way regarding reboots. that's the main reason I really dislike discovery's 1st season and certain plot points. while Strange New Worlds is a reboot of sorts as well it is amazing. it's just a real shame certain things are going to have to be "undone" to line up with existing canon as SNW has done an exceptional job all around and the changes they've made work really well.
