Finally a native Linux mod manager. It's a pain trying to run Windows mod managers through WINE or Proton.

Hopefully it’s better than the old NMM offering, Vortex. It was a pain trying to use it at all, never mind through Wine.
Wasn't Mod Organizer 2 natively ported to Linux already? I know they mainly do Bethesda games but credit where it's due
Curious to see how good it works with Betheda games once they are supported. Vortex at least to me seemed overcomplicated and I still don't grasp a lot of things about it. I liked the old OG Nexus Mod Manager best.
Same. Vortex was so convoluted and confusing to use. Currently using MO2 which works okayish under Linux but I want a proper native mod manager for Bethesda games.
Granted, I'm generally not a huge fan of Nexus, but them going cross platform with this is a very good thing and also shows how far Linux has come that we see this sort of attention now.
I find vortex just doesnt work too often to be considered reliable on window. It's usually far less hassle to just do it manually.
