I don't know if this effort will pan out, and we're going to get a long running series with a rotating cast going farther into the future, like the showrunners seem to indicate. At this point, just like with Discovery, I value a lot more a valiant effort even if that may ultimately fall short, than a safe bet on whatever grimdark slop they'll give us next if things don't change.

I watched the first two episodes of Starfleet Academy, after consciously trying to stay out of the Star Trek fandom's catastrophising about it, as well as avoiding the obvious attempts at pre-emptively shit on it by the chuds, and I have some thoughts about the series.
