This game i am playing is about 5 yrs in game yrs, and i see the worlds with lower qualities have more rapidly growing populations.
Thulun prime, the first system i built with 22 qualities have 10 pops, while Sernauana with 10 qualities have 12 populations already...
Also Javat Prime with 20 qualities have 11 populations, while galantia with 13 qualities have 13 pops.
And generally if lower the quality is, faster the population grow.
Is this intended? And if it is, why? I expect people want to live better place more... And i built many nice buildings for them...

Unpredictable population growth is an intentional feature of ST4X that can be challenging to cope with.
The story for ST4X is that the Star Traders are fleeing from the galactic core to establish a new home. You start the game with 3 colony ships, but other star traders arrive throughout the game leading to the unpredictable population growth.
The best way to cope with unpredictable population growth is always have 1-2 empty hab units, but not overbuild. Another tactic is to make a Factory one of the first upgrades on a new colony.

So I gotta find a way to provide more space to live without using anymore qualities, thanks. |

Yeah, that's what you've gotta do. Part of it is staying ahead of the curve on the planetary construction side of the tech tree. Keep in mind that not just Hab Units help with housing, you can also use the Space Port, Orbital Platform and Orbital Defense.

There are a lot of ways to add Housing to a planet, including some of the military installations.
