Personally I was more invested in Strange New Worlds characters by three episodes in than I was for the whole 2 and a half seasons I trudged through of Discovery.See, I find strange new worlds uninteresting. I don't care about one character. Orville and Discovery were much better.
Obviously mileage varies considerably on these things; I may have just hit Discovery at the wrong time in my life and Strange New Worlds at the right time.
