I know most people don't seem to like the hopper as is, but I don't mind it for things like loading up eggs/milk/coffee/geodes/recycling in to machines to grab later or as I pass by. I don't want to overly automate or anything like that. I like the simplicity of them and not having to carry around restock materials to the individual machines each time I collect.
That said, I feel like they might shine a bit better in the early game when time is so much more important. Maybe the recipe could be changed to simpler items like the other machines and unlocked with a community request from Robin or if the recipe or completed hopper could just be bought from her later?
Other changes I would love for them would be if they could be rotated that would be great. Right now it really limits the space and layouts which causes some issues when I'm running by to collect from the machine and I end up opening the hopper from the device below if only have 1 space in the rows instead of getting the finished product from the machine I was trying to collect from.
Then being able to color code them would be nice as well for aesthetics (there's lots of brown/yellow when you use them with the brown/yellow machines as is) and for organization to use the colors to keep fruits separated or fish roe from each other so you can get a quick reminder of what you were loading them with. Same with all of the void eggs, ostrich eggs, dino eggs, brown eggs, white eggs, etc so all can be loaded quicker if you like to keep them all sorted by raw material and finished product.
