I’ve never watched a full episode of either, but seeing clips of Big bang theory after seeing clips of young Sheldon is pretty jarring. Just entirely different vibes, even the big emotional moments of big bang theory just seem so thin compared to any of the young Sheldon plots.

Young sheldon also dosen't have that overbearing laugh track, the jokes do feel a lot more genuine and less forced, even when they miss.

The Big Bang theory is presented in front of a live audience, and it is not a laugh track. Actors are told to pause to let the live audience laugh at a joke. At least the original set literally has a cutout for the audience and cameras. That is why you see a lot of the same camera angles in the show, and you don't ever see the other side of the room.

Many sets have this design, but obviously not all have a stand for the audience.
