Consensus seems to be disliking this change, but curious if there are other perspectives

I actually like it. Less episodes works fine for me as long as good stories are being told. I'm awfully busy, I can't dedicate much time to TV. I actually have the same thing with video games. I'd rather dedicate my time to quality self contained experiences like miniseries, than to drawn out mindless background noise levels of infinite content. I got podcasts, streamers and music to fill the silence. I no longer feel the appeal of 15 seasons of 24 episodes of 40 min each for that.
