I can’t speak for everyone, but personally I enjoy both finding things myself and using glyphs shared by others. As I see it, they are simply two different kinds of “play” that NMS enables. I have a “Batman” themed Interceptor that someone else shared which amuses me, but – like you – I often default to an exotic that I happened upon myself. (Unfortunately, I can’t share the location of that particular exotic, because I didn’t know anything about glyph sharing at the time, and now I have no idea where I found it.)
If you don’t get any pleasure out of one mode of play, no big deal. Just enjoy the journey!
I liked picking up other people’s finds early on. Now I have a good collection of my own finds, the hunt and share is more satisfying. Sometimes it even helps to shape my play goals. E.g. I might spend a while searching for specifically cat-like fauna and share a curated bunch.
