Can someone give me adivice on how/where to get back into star trek?
As a kid i loved watching the next generation and deep space 9 with my dad. Ive always liked sci fi, more of a (stargate fan) and wanted to get back into star trek, but Im just so lost on timelines and whats going on. There are like 6 kirks and I have no idea how/where to get started with watching this again.

Just watch The Orville instead.
I second this the orville is the best star trek show since deep space 9
In that both The Orville and DS9 miss the point of Star Trek despite being made by people who clearly like Star Trek.
Sorry, I know I'm alone in being grumpy about DS9, but I've been grumpy about DS9 since the 90s.
My vote is for Strange New Worlds. I don't hate The Orville, I think it's funny and has its own sense of internal consistency, but I'd definitely watch it as a loving parody from a different political tack. If one is into academia or analytically-minded, comparing where the humor comes from in Lower Decks and The Orville would be a fantastic paper or video essay to put together, though.
@Princeofspace @StandingCat Terrible take! I love The Orville, but it doesn't replace Trek in any way.
It feels more like Trek than anything from this decade.
The first season came closer to TOS than any other show imo
