This is consistent with my idea (which I’ve long had) that there was yet another quality drop around the time they switched to HD. The episodes from the 2000s are mostly still perfectly watchable IMHO, the ones from the 2010s much less so and I don’t think I’ve ever watched a Simpsons episode from the 2020s, so can’t say anything about that.
Last year a started watching from the beginning and watched until I found that I pretty consistently did not enjoy the episodes. I agree with your assessment. The last episode that I watched was from '13 or '14.
