If I didn’t have to wait for games I’m anticipating before release to work on Linux, I would have happily learned how to use Linux years ago. I pretty much only use my PC as an entertainment system; games, movies/tv, internet use. I like to mod my games and modding on Windows has become so easy that it’s actually feasible to help my PC inept friends get a working load order without committing a weekend. Unless the larger nexus modding community as a majority switch to Linux, I don’t see myself switching for a long time
It’s still pretty heavily work progress, but I recommend that you at least keep an eye on the Nexus mods app, It’s designed to be compatible with both Windows and Linux, but it’s as of yet only compatible with a few games and doesn’t yet update properly, But that’s one of the things they’re working on sooner rather than later from what I’ve seen.

I regularly buy new games on release on Linux without even checking, play with friends on windows and have yet to be burned
Helldivers was a bit janky to begin with but with some custom launch options it ran fine

Most games work day one these days with proton. How is modding more difficult on Linux? I feel like it’s easier, but maybe I’m just used to it.
