I finished rewatching season 3 of Moral Orel a while ago and I was wondering where I could find similarly dark and depressing cartoons. I enjoyed BoJack Horseman and Rick and Morty, but those have a lot of lighthearted moments. I want something that'll genuinely fuck me up. What do you recommend?
there's nothing left

You could try out some Don Hertzfeldt stuff like World of Tomorrow and It's such a beautiful day.
They are on netflix afaik

Well, Johnny Test is just an over the top version of real life. All this shit happens, but in the end it's all meaningless.
The Nutshack.

You just aren't going to find much variety in American cartoons because for a long time they were seen as primarily for children.
Your best bets are probably Duckman, Mission Hill, Oblongs, the Critic, and Boondocks, though they all focus heavily on comedy, they have a bit of that dark depressing grown-up outlook you're looking for. Sardonic humor shows, pretty much.

How about animated films like this?

Bumping for interest.
bojack horseman is the only show to even get me anywhere near as much in my feels as I was when watching orel.

Salad Fingers is creepy as fuck at first, but then it works it's way into your head and becomes depressing as well
A Scanner Darkly
It uses rotoscoping but is fairly depressing

David Firth's other shorts like that one about pain are sadder.

"Pain is honest!" "Say thanks to pain!"
