I feel safer exploring swamps or mountains than in my own base. When I'm away I understand that it's a dangerous and hostile world, but I don't want that in my base.
When a raid appears, I run away, get killed twice and the raid ends. It's not fun or immersive.
I like to spend hours building and designing my base, and it sucks to get raided when I'm enjoying the peace of my home.
I respect people who want raids, but please only put the option to remove them for people who don't like them.

Build a defense around your base, with a tiny bit of research on this forum you will realize you can make your base immune to all raids except the flyers.
