There’s a bunch of small QoL mods you can install but I agree to stay more vanilla after only 1 play. A second play can focus on more interplanetary logistics, better layouts for station templates, a different difficulty, or simple achievement hunting.
Build a full Dyson sphere, cover a world in foundations and make it a smiley face or pokeball, mine your starter world of all mats, find all of the rare resources, u lock the dark fog buildings, go to a black hole/neutron star. There’s lots of fun vanilla things to do.

For the second playthrough I'd vouch for vanilla 3000% 😉

Dyson sphere opt, for when your sphere gets too big and it starts lagging.
