I always liked the old version of what happened after return of the Jedi in Legends. Because it has Luke learning from the mistakes of the past. In legends Luke’s new Jedi order doesn’t view attachment as inherently bad. And Luke’s Jedi are allowed to have relationships/get married etc.

Yes, same
here. Luke’s Jedi Order is everything the PT!Order wasn’t. Luke was a healthy
and balanced individual and he created a healthy and balanced organization.

He
understood the power of love, friendship, family, loyalty, etc. So he built an
Order focused on these ideals. It also makes sense thematically; Luke outgrew
his teachers so it makes sense for his Order to be better than theirs. Instead of
making their old mistakes again and again (murder, scheming, politics, etc),
Luke created something new, something better proving his way – the truly
compassionate and honest way – was the better one.

“The evolution of sentience reflects the
constant movement between those two poles. Evil—the dark side—won’t be
eradicated until it has been discarded as an option for acquiring power,
subjugating would-be opponents, or offsetting feelings of anger, envy, or
exclusion. Where victims of injustice
exist, the dark side finds initiates
. That is the cycle our actions are
meant to forestall, and in this battle the Force is both our ally and our
guardian. We serve it best by listening to its will, and serving the good with
our every action—by personifying the Force. But I’m no longer convinced that we’re meant to police the galaxy. For
one thing, we’re too few in number. That was made evident early in the war, and
it’s likely to hold true for whatever conflicts erupt in the coming years. The
Jedi began as a meditative order. Our forebears believed that they could
balance light and dark by remaining always in the Force, and thereby perfecting
themselves. Gradually, however, as the
Supreme Chancellors appealed to the Order time and again for advice in
resolving disputes, the Jedi became adjuncts of the Old Republic, then marshals
and warriors, taking it upon themselves to uphold the peace, and little by
little being drawn away from the Force and into the mundane.  I don’t propose that we place ourselves in
seclusion and pass our days meditating on the Force—though that might be the
path for some of us. But I do advocate attuning ourselves to the longer view,
and reaching out to others who seek to serve the Force.
The genetic makeup of each and every one of
us augments our ability to tap the Force, but everyone, regardless of his or
her genetics, has the potential to use the Force to one degree or another.
Perhaps not to move rocks and take giant strides; but in some sense those
physical powers are little more than surface effects. The real powers are more
subtle, for they involve adhering to the true path, avoiding the temptation to
dominate, sacrificing oneself for those who have less, and living impeccably,
by recognizing that the Force doesn’t flow from us but through us, ever on the
move. Like our damaged galaxy, the new Jedi order will require generations to
define itself.
[James Luceno. The Unifying Force]

Luke
Skywalker is awesome. He created an Order that allowed love (all types of
love), that didn’t control knowledge, that fostered creativity, humility,
compassion, independence and the sense of personal responsibility in all it’s
students. He didn’t took babies from their parents. He recognized the necessity for accountability and that the Force
didn’t belong to the Jedi Order.
