Any sci-fi with aliens where humans are not the less advanced race? (lemmings.world)

What the title says, I'm tired of the trope where humans are the least advanced in the universe.

I'd like to read something different where we're the more advanced ones (not necessarily the most advanced). As an example I quite enjoyed the Ender's Game sequels and the angle of us being the more advanced ones was quite interesting.

Do you have any recommendations?

This is a driving factor in a majority of Star Trek fiction.

Never really was into Star Trek, unfortunately.

I'd watch star trek if i can skip the old ones. I'm sorry die hard star trek fans but the cgi in those times is just way too terrible for me. I'm sure i can maybe skip to the new ones and just spoil the older shows for myself to get the jist though.

Edit: wait are we talking books or movies/shows? I come from the (everything) fediverse section my bad

In their defense, it was pretty hard to do good Computer-Generated Imagery without computers… 😉
