I see this differently. This is comedy for younger crowd as in teenagers and 20-something and those of youthful at heart. I'm not against it, aside from the original cartoon of TOS which Gene Roddenberry said was canon, nothing i think other than live television show and film really part canon (belong to whatever timeline they belong to).
Below Decks is more the original TOS/DS9/VGR/TNG continuation, nothing so far says it belongs in Discovery/Picard Prime Timeline.
There suppose to be a second show, but it maybe until next year till we see it given the delays with production. Heck, i can see cartoons more likely keep going in production since you don't need be in person to work on them.
