I poked around a while and couldn't find anything, I see memes from y'all all the time and the progressive nature of Star Trek has got me. I wanna watch it.

Where do I begin?

If you're a kid, start with Prodigy. If you have a tiny attention span, start with Lower Decks. If you're used to mainstream modern TV, start with Strange New Worlds. If you can tolerate 90s TV, start with TNG season 2. If you love old TV, start with TOS.

The best entry point is going to depend on who you are. There's lots of diverse Trek for different kinds of people.
