Yea that's a big aspect. Old-school (pre-rebirth) Trek was entirely episodic except for the experiments in DS9 and Enterprise. Both of which, it's quite easy to forget in hindsight, were badly received at the time but are now (at least, for DS9), looked upon as some of the best parts of the franchise. The downside of super-serialized TV is that if it sucks, it all sucks, there's no "good episodes" buried in it. Which is the fatal flaw of Discovery and Picard.

Thankfully you might be happy to know that SNW is entirely episodic; you don't need to watch them in order, and each episode is entirely self-contained. Definitely check it out of you like old-school Trek storytelling style. The last episode is especially amazing if you are a fan of TOS Balance of Terror, but I won't say more than that.
