have you turned off high quality shaders and volumetrics? these are heavy resource hogs

soulframe is just in pre-pre-pre alpha. a lot is still in the works as they're still working on how to make motes *work*.
a lot of the game is dungeon running to get weapon parts, mini worldbosses and faction tales. otherwise you're fine waiting every other month or so for a story update

my biggest tip:
always check a games settings options. there's a ton of quality of life things (especially warframe) that might be tucked away, like "melee with fire weapon input" turning melee from E to left click when you have a melee weapon equipped, or general FoV changes in others

but my duviri ass is drinking buddies with that mode), abilities/weapons and how they feel

it's Very, very rough around the edges but there's absolutely something solid in here, even if it's just Okay.

or maybe I'm just growing more detached from my older circles

this is to say I just need friends that are actually. around

image/claim in question

let me clarify a bit; there was a post faking a claim that they were taking notes from an inferior game, that specific post is fake but their shift away from gacha is very much real

duet night abyss, however the "stir" was a fake post.
