Re-playing Andromeda for the first time since release and am looking for advice/tips to make the experience go smoothly

I put ~100 hours into my first playthrough back when the game came out and enjoyed it for the most part. Now that I'm doing a re-play I want to know if y'all have any tips on how to streamline the experience because one of my complaints about the game is how bloated and overwhelming it can feel. Also if you know any general gameplay tips/tricks like recommended fun loadouts and stuff like that, feel free to share that too.
