Which mods disable achievements?
I have seen mods in the mod list specifying that they do not disable achievements, so I know some mods must not disable achievements (unless they are lying, for example the Peaceful Mode mod); is there some systematic way to tell if some QOL mod will disable achievements or not?

Turning on any mods will not prevent the achievement mechanics in-game.

Earned achievements with any mods enabled will not appear on Steam profile achievement as done.

Factorio actually has 2 separate achievement trackers: one for "vanilla" and one for modded. So, technically, you can still earn achievements with mods, but they won't show up on Steam.

As for mods that don't disable achievements, it's a bit of a workaround. Steam achievements can't be earned while a mod is enabled, but (supposedly) it's possible to later disable mods and continue earning achievements in that save. I believe Change Map Settings is one such mod that claims you can enable it, make the changes you need to, disable it, then continue earning achievements--though I haven't personally tested this. Toggle Peaceful Mode seems to be another such mod.

Note that using a cheat command will disable achievements in both modded and vanilla games. However, the game will warn you if what you typed counts and asks that you repeat the command to be certain.

All mods disable Steam achievements while they are active. Some settings disable some achievements, and you can see that on the wiki.

To the heart of your question. You would have to check every mod. ~99.999% of mods disable Steam mods. There is an easy way to get all Steam achievements.
