To give some context: DS9 is from the 90s, where series were basically stand alone episodes with occasional two parters.

That said, DS9 is one of the first series that break that. Not in the first season maybe and I’m not going to spoil you but there are archs that are returned to in several episodes, things that change for good and stories that expend the 90s two parter by alot.

This isn’t much compared to modern standards and you don’t have to like it, but it’s not as bad as the first season suggests and it’s progressive for its time. Maybe that helps you to appreciate the series but maybe it doesn’t, take it or leave it.
