Hi StarTrek.website, I’m Karim Diané aka Jay-Den Kraag from Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, AMA! (Responding to questions Thursday @4pm!)
Pretty much all I’ve been hearing is praise. I think it’s more reflective of which places we go for discussions than reflective of the quality of the show.
With a small but vocal minority hating on the (in best ferengi impression) feeeeeeeemale characters, it’s been mostly “it’s great” or “it’s not my cup of earl Grey but it’s being done well for the most part and I hope it does well”
Its because you are in a filter bubble. Its not a small and vocal minority disliking the new star trek. Its actually one of the most popular topics right now on YouTube, with tons of people discussing why they hate it. But your feed probably wont serve you that. We all live in these bubbles now. :)
You’re in a bubble that is actively trying to love it for political reasons, despite its many faults. Another bubble is actively hating it, for similar political reasons. Most people just don’t care.
Opinions of your bubble are more probable to be similar to yours. It’s better to look at opinions of people with similar taste to assess whether you’ll like something. In case of finding a series you like, it’s actually beneficial to take into account just your bubble.
