Ill give Lower decks a shot!
I do have to say one of the things that has turned me off from the ones I've tried to start up is the repeated attempts to revive/reinvent the old characters. Not a fan of reboots.
Lower Decks does have some legacy characters as guest stars. Riker, Paris, Troi, Q, Quark, Kira and a few others all make appearances. But those are cameo type appearances and the focus of the show is on new characters.

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.
