I was going to post about it too! So there's already a decent-size fandom for Yuletide.
Personally, I loved Murderbot for the narrative voice. I have a weakness for snarky narrators of that variety, and Murderbot is one of the best I've seen in a while. I also really like AIs that don't actually want to be human but do want to be treated as people, stories about exploration (the main plot is about a planetary survey team), and non-main characters with their own lives and doings.
(Also, if you like unremarked diversity, you may like that aspect of it - the survey team has a variety of non-white ethnicities represented, judging by their last names; is fairly evenly split between male and female members; and originates from a culture where marriage is apparently expected to be polygamous. The story never makes a point of it, but the human cast is pretty diverse.)
