Yesterday, July 1st, they announced the Alpha release of this next-generation mod manager and their new Product Manager got in touch to mention they “would be really keen to get feedback from Linux users”. So this is your chance to ensure Linux (and Steam Deck) finally become a first-class citizen for game modding.
I never really used their previous client. I liked the control of doing it manually and found it got in the way.
I’m glad to hear they’re working Linux support in to this new version though.
