Limo: A simple Qt based mod manager

Someone mentioned this on a the recent discussions about Nexus Mods cancelling their Linux mod loader, and after trying it out I thought it was worth making a dedicated post about it.

    What’s this about nexus having cancelled their Linux mod loader? Have they changed their plans regarding the nexus mods app?

    Edit: Just saw that they’re retiring the nexus mods app to go back to working on vortex. whyyyyyyyy

      I bet this has something to do with them being sold off last year and the new owners not seeing the cross platform app as being worth it

      In case anyone wants it, you can get Vortex working with WINE games. It’s a pain, and it does have issues, but it can be done. I’ve only ever seen people say it can’t work, but you can run it under the same prefix as the game and have it function 95% of the way fine. There will be some warnings that won’t go away though.
