Even though I do like the sequel trilogy, well 2/3 of it, I completely agree that Cobra Kai does the legacy sequel thing way better because it remembers to ensure that both the old characters and the new characters get somewhat equal focus and allow both to have character arcs and progress. Also, I think the writing is way better in Cobra Kai because I think only 1 of movies in the sequel trilogy, The Last Jedi, was actually well written. Force Awakens was fine but focused too much on setting up mystery boxes that they had no idea what the answers that were within them would be. Much of the film was also was derivative of A New Hope because they were terrified that the Star Wars fanbase would hate it like the prequels and decided not to write something new and original. Rise of Skywalker is a complete trainwreck from a writing level. The Last Jedi is the only one of the sequel trilogy that even attempts to do something similar to what Cobra Kai did, in that every single character in that film goes through a character arc and tries to give everyone some character development, even if a lot of people dislike what they specifically did with those character arcs. Cobra Kai does all of this, and more, successfully enough to where I consider the show better than the originals.
