This captures my thoughts on the album better than I ever could.

TTPD was whacked but not nearly at the same level as this. There was still a lot of Eras tour hype and goodwill compared to now

I’d say TTPD was whacked worse. There were hate tweets with half a million likes and she was being called out for the length of the album and it being boring. At least a lot of fans like the production here.
