I just finished listening to The Strange Case of Starship Iris. It's an audio fiction podcast that ran 10 episodes. It's set in space in 2189 and the main cast are space smugglers, so that should give you a tell on the vibe. There are queer and enby characters, some fun worldbuilding and in-world languages, plus lots of space adventures. It's light on romance, but I would say the c-plot is romance, and there is a nice established relationship. There are over 70 fics for it, but I haven't read any yet. The transcripts are here.
For your likes - this is mostly female characters - and a female ship captain! Also lots of grey and an alien character who's race is supposed to hate Humans and vice versa, but they're a valued member of the crew and an amazing pilot!
For warnings, one of the characters has a pretty rough backstory, so its not so much on screen harm to a child, but briefly edging around relived trauma.
