TIL about Amethyst Mod Manager for Linux (github.com)

Since Nexus Mod Manager for Linux fizzled out, I was excited to find a decent mod manager. It has built-in support for about 100 games, but adding other games seems pretty easy. I pasted in the Steam ID and path the the .exe of a proton game (MineMogul), and then everything just worked.

I would love to have this be the Linux Skyrim modding fix I need to get through the coming winter. That said, I remember when this was first announced there were rumors that it was a vibe-coded project. Has that issue been cleared up?

Modding isn't broken on Linux. I used MO2 fine with both Skyrim and Fallout 4

You're not wrong. MO2 really didn't suit me, but I did okay with the workarounds for Vortex and was just wondering if we finally had a Linux-native alternative for me in particular. The other mod managers just don't work for me as well as Vortex does, and it helped me understand exactly how prefixes work
