I find freeman and mariner to be especially obnoxious. Tendi can be a bit annoying too.
I find it good, but like with all comedies, it's not for everyone. What makes one person laugh isn't guaranteed to make another laugh too, after all.
But I also like LD for being more than just a comedy, as it also tells some fun stories looking at some of the more mundane and routine minutiae of the Trek universe, things Trek had previously been in the habit of just blurring over, but exploring that minutiae is excellent for world-building too, to the point every franchise should do it at some point, so it's great Trek's doing it through LD.
LD also gives some love to the more "not-so-great" ideas Trek has accumulated over the years, and demonstrated that just because they're seen as not as great as some of the other more famous ideas, doesn't mean there aren't still worthwhile stories to tell there too, and continued to flesh out further those not-so-great ideas that they probably would not have gotten otherwise, sometimes even finding ways to redeem those "less-than-great" moments of Trek by finding ways to make them compelling again.
LD's also good at acknowledging the discrepancies of the Trek universe and attempting to either provide some kind of explanation for it, even if by just putting a comedic spin to it, or to openly acknowledge it as a discrepancy and proceed to question it...even if by just putting a comedic spin to it, but sometimes LD's also managed to touch upon things that are still of legitimate concern or problems in the culture of the Federation and provide commentary on how that maybe that should be something that should be getting better addressed than it is. It also helps to humble both the Federation and Starfleet as well as Trek itself by acknowledging that, even at its best, it's still not always perfect. But that's okay, it doesn't need to be, we just need to accept it's not always perfect and enjoy it for what it is rather than focus on how it might've fallen short.
It being an animated show, LD's also been able to do a whole lot of things that live action would struggle with due to various production and/or budget concerns that wouldn't apply to animation, and it's fun to see how much more zany or exotic the Trek universe can actually be that way. Some of the best new aliens New Trek has introduced have all come from LD, for example. Looping back to my earlier point about the world-building, it also means LD doesn't have to hold back on that world-building, as production/budget concerns don't apply as much as they would for live action, allowing them to explore a great many more things that otherwise wouldn't have been practical in live action.
