My only regret right now is being limited by mobile and work.
they're two different genres and neither of them are entirely "happy-optimistic" or "grim dark" anymore than the superhero genre is entirely "grimdark".
We can have both. It just so happens dystopia is the prevalent one right now.
Not to mention OPs pseudophilosophybullshit of "isn't it better to~"
Neither is better. They're genres. People have personal preferences of viewing material depending on their day and mood. Sometimes people want exploratory scifi and other times I want humanity rebuilding from a dystopia. OP setting the two genres up, blanketly generalising both of them to reduce them to disingenuous bullshit that ignores that both can be happy or dark is stupid.
So. No.

While dark material isn't ALL dark, it's still darker than lighter material, and darker fare has definitely been "in" for a little while now. It makes sense for someone to have a little genre fatigue.
