Everyone keeps talking about how to fix the problem with weird...

I agree with most of this, plus what a few other players have discussed in Discord. Alongside shrinking the universe a bit, maybe to 1 or 2 galaxies, plus changing PVP mechanics to make city conquest/wars/construction be a longer-period affair may result in higher player interaction and activity in the long term. Basically, anything to ensure overnight empire stomping isn't as easy and to encourage non-PVP interaction with things like trade and so on
