I feel like I don't "get" Nightwing.
There are so many people who say they love Dixon's run and how he made Dick one of their favorite characters of all time, but I read through a good chunk of it and couldn't feel much more than "yeah this is pretty ok."
boyish charm plus daredevil with sight
That's Dick.
That's really all there's to it. And the butt panels.
It's not about """"getting"""" a character.
Most superheroes are just the same guy retextured and recontextualized. Maybe gay big peach butt Dick Gray-san isn't your waifunintendo ahem husbando.
Move on to the next jewish collage magazine and find one you like
Entire run is such utter shit it's hard to believe anyone likes it. I'd also like to add that Dixon has never written anything beyond what could be described as 'serviceable' in his life.

The thing is I enjoy him fine when he comes back to Gotham and interacts with the rest of the Bat Family, it's just when he's on his own that I feel like his stories become boring.
It doesn't hold up very well imo, though I guess it's also one of the first times we see Dick really live an adult, separate life in modern times. Before that he was on a team or featured kind of primarily as Bruce's sidekick, so it's great for that alone.
But if I were trying to introduce someone into Dick Grayson in this time now, I'm giving them the Nu-52 Nightwing to Grayson run rather than Dixon's. It's gonna work better.

I guess Outsider Dick fits somewhere on that scale but I haven't read it. I've heard good things though!

I actually like him better outside Gotham without all the Bat characters.
Dixon's run is kind of that mediocre that you want for a solo if you can't give it a GOAT run. It's not going to win you over or anything but if you like the concept you'll probably enjoy it.

And yet for some reason a lot of people consider it GOAT.

False, his Punisher comics are good
