Well if you posted this poll on the subreddit you'd probably see the opposite.  It's pretty rare anyone posts a pic there that includes a ship.

You are probably correct, most people I talk to don't bother even touching the ships as they consider them too difficult.

Sometimes, mainly to play with my novelty ships and also for photo ops for my world building. :) But yes, the ship controls are difficult, it took ke a while to learn and get used to them.

For me, sometimes but I find difficult to make an appointment with a ship or a celestial bodie and also the warp in manual.

Often. I'd probably use them even more often when orbital transfers and slingshots are implemented :)

They are implemented but there is just no assist so they are really difficult to do unless you're able to do the maths.
