I rewatched “Interstellar” and the time dilation dilemma makes my brain hurt. If a change in gravity alters time then wouldn’t you feel a difference entering/exiting said fake planet?

You as an observer never feel or see time dilation. Your perception of time is always the same, but relative to other frames of reference, time passes differently. However it’s worth noting that what is depicted in Interstellar is wildly exaggerated. If it really worked like that then there would be significant dime distortion between the characters’ heads and their legs, or from one end of the ship to another.
