I’m a Linux SysAdmin, so I’m well versed in Linux. My server, laptop and phone all run it, but my desktop still runs Windows 10 because modding Skyrim (via MO2) is a pain in the ass (apparently there have been a lot of improvements in this area in the past year or two since I last tried).
Windows is such a garbage OS. For the past week or so, ModOrganizer2 would hang for a few seconds anytime I attempted to explore the files of a mod I had installed. MO2 gave no hints regarding what the issue was. I searched for an answer last night and found it on GitHub: a disconnected network drive is the cause…even though everything I was accessing is local 🤦♂️ This apparently affects various programs and isn’t specific to MO2, since the person that posted the solution found the original solution in a Steam bug report from over 2 years ago!
I unmounted the network drive and everything was back to normal! Fucking garbage OS.

Nexus mods has a new mod manager that they’re working on, and it supports linux. Unfortunately it only supports Stardew Valley and Cyberpunk at the moment, but Bethesda games and Baldur’s gate 3 are next on their planned support list.

Heh, third time’s a charm I guess! I love how they went from Nexus Mod Manager to Vortex and now back to Nexus Mod App 😂
