The only Star Wars I’ve ever seen is the holiday special, can’t say I’d recommend it. :0 I guess to some degree that’s one way to experience the franchise though!

Don’t bother with the sequels. Tfa was okay, but it’s shit by og standards.
Just watch Andor and Rogue One, the rest is for children.
I have a master playlist on my Plex server with every Star Wars show and film in timeline order, including episodes in between episodes and seasons in between seasons (mostly for the Tales of the X series and for Rebels/Andor). It took me ages to set up, but it’s based on an article I saw somewhere. If I can find it,I’ll edit this post and link it here. But, as I recall, googling “Star Wars timeline order” should get you a pretty good and authoritative set of lists. Some differ, but they all tend to explain their decisions.
I also did this for all of the Star Trek series and films. That’s a lot longer. The Star Wars one is ~8 days. The Trek one is 33 days.
I've watched/have the Anti-cheese Edits of the Prequels I-III, and the De-Specialized Edits of Episodes IV-VI, and truly enjoyed both.
I don't recall seeing 4k versions of either of these available yet, nor am I aware of suitable source re-leases that could be used to make such. Best of luck to you.
The goal of Project #4K77 is simply to create a version of the 1977 Pre-Special Edition version of Star Wars, that will look good on a 4K Television or monitor. Most of the source material is 35mm film scanned at 4K, processed at 4K and rendered at 4K. When no 4K footage is available, an upscale from either the SSE or the Official Blu-ray will be used.
This is basically the same thing for each individual release.
You added a "y" at the begging of the url which screws-up the link, but thanks. My own search had only turned up stale forum garbage. Figured I was out-of-date.
Watch the L8Wrtr edits of the prequel trilogy, then the Despecialized versions of the OG trilogy. Some say to watch in release order. I don't think it matters as much as watching the content as it was originally created, and without the stupid fluff in the prequel trilogy.
Watch the original Star Wars, then The Empire Strikes Back, then Return of the Jedi. The versions you found are good.
Here's the important bit, turn off Jedi as soon as you see a fat fuzzy walking teddy bear creature. The introduction of the Ewoks is when Star Wars dies.
Watch Ep 4, Ep 5, Ep 6 stop. Watch Ep1 as a non canon. Throw the rest in the trash.
Unpopular opinion: just watch Visions S1&2 and then forget about the rest.
Rogue One, A New Hope, The Blackened Mantle, Return of the Jedi, The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, and you're done.
Not a fan of Empire Strikes Back?
It's the worst Star Wars movie
