After probably Game 1 I have never colonised one.
Under LeGuin they look more attractive, are they worth it ?

Are Gaia worlds worth colonising now ?

Well, let's see...
100% habitability
+10% resources from POP jobs
Strategic resources
I don't mean to sound rude, but why is this even a question?

I was actually surprised to see a gaia world in my current game that wasn't in or adjacent to a spiritualist fallen empire; it was the first time I was able to colonize one before the endgame.
I have a quesion though, after terraforming all my worlds to Gaia worlds (which was a mistake), half of my planet districts got deleted. Is this a bug or Gaia worlds have less disctricts in average, I mean production ones. I had something like 4 energy 10 mine and 4 agri, after terraforming I got 3 energy, 3 mine and 3 agri. This is ridiculous
I never used to colonize them as while offering attractive habitats they seemed always short on resources.
It's a bug, apparently. Someone figured out that Gaia worlds can't generate +1 district bonuses, so when you terraform, any +1 farms, +1 mines, etc. just get deleted because there is no Gaia equivalent.
Gaia's are always worth colonizing. For one, 100% habitability for everyone means no penalties for anyone living there (More of an obvious issue now, what with amenities being added), and the 10% production boost is everything. I found a Gaia in one of my saves, and rushed to it so I could colonize it.
Plus they look pretty.

Did you make RNG mad at you or something?
I see gaia worlds with the same resource distribution as other worlds. Hell, I've got a save game somewhere with a gaia world that had 4 Betharian Stone deposits.
Resource bug is lame but gaia seem more suitable for city work anyway. Higher specialized pops use more consumer goods and food anyway, so might as well load them onto a world that's going to have zero habitability penalties to those upkeep values.
Did you mod the game or something? I rarely see Gaia worlds that isn't already "claimed" next to a fallem empire who immediately tells me to kindly F off from it when I try to colonize.. I think out of the last 20 games before Le guin I found 1 gaia world that I could colonize without getting some AI empires panties in a bunch.
They show up randomly throughout the galaxy- usually in a system protected by some large wildlife fleets or a Leviathan. Sometimes they show up in relation to anomalies.
In my case, nope. I just found it. Sometimes you just get lucky. And other times you have to kill some Leviathan's sometimes.
So out of curiosity I generated 3 1000 star galaxies
1. Had 6 normal Gaia Worlds (+2 Tiyanki Matriach +4 Holy Worlds)
2. Had 7 normal Gaia Worlds (+4 Holy)
3. Had 9 normal Gaia Worlds (+4 Holy)

No mods.
I see gaia worlds all the time that are not Holy Worlds for the FE.
I tend to play in larger galaxies, though. So I roll the dice a few mote times and others.
