Coming back after a two year break. Suggestions? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

So I'm coming back to the game after a two year break. I didn't get too deep into the game before, mostly doing low level combat and trading.

I was wondering what resources people more familiar with the game would suggest I check out for getting into some of the other content like mining, exobiology, and exploration. I'd like to take a shot at the basics of the different gameplay loops/styles before I start trying to get into the deeper content like engineering.

Unfortunately a lot of guides I've found seem to focus on maximum optimization before you even try to get into the content. I don't want to do an engineering grind, or grind to get an FC, before I figure out if I even like the type of gameplay it's going to make easier.

I came back into it a few months ago. I played at launch or pre launch way back in the day. But I just bought a diamondback explorer and a good frame shift setup and explored new planets. Exbiology is fun for a while, very relaxing, and very lucrative.
