OTOH, I (unvaxd) caught this bug with the rest of my family. And it really is a doozy. Fever over 100 for 48 hours, can't smell anything, and two weeks later still getting better but have involuntarily lost 8 pounds and feel like crap.
Still not as bad as the last time I had the flu (knocked flat for five days!), but I wouldn't characterize it as "mild" either.

Our family (unvaxxed) is on day 4 of our first ever go-round. I agree--hasn't been pleasant, especially the first 48 hours but I have had a couple of flus that were worse.
My unvaxed family going through it now as well and that has been our experience too. This is the 3rd time it's gone through our family though. More unpleasant that other times, but still just a bad head cold.
