I agree, and I dropped Factorio for a year before going back to it and sinking a few hundred hours into it.

What changed? Well partly some UI improvement, but mostly it was a mindset change.

The inventory is rubbish because you're not supposed to have inventory.

It's a game about JIT supply chains.

Instead of building things and working out what to build from them, start from the end and work backwards.

I also had to learn to not get bothered by overproduction and stop trying to buffer overproduced goods.
