I like to imagine I see no comments because everyone is busy playing factorio.

good game. and looks like its a proper oldschool expension too. (eg its not just a few skins but a lot of extra game)

edit: you will see me advocate for piracy on here a lot but buy this game if you can, its worth it.

Not a fan of the factorio.com price being 3$ cad higher than steam.

They have no control over it. Steam uses regional pricing, but Humble uses straight currency conversion.

Feel free to buy it from Steam. You get both versions (Steam and stand alone) either way and both options equally benefit the devs. Steam might even be prefered, Kovarex mentioned they benefit greatly from a big hype on Steam in the first days.
