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.

Yeah, I have a friend who was very interested in switching to Linux on his gaming computer.

His game of choice is Arma 3, which I play and runs great on Linux. But then he asked me, "what about mods?" He plays Arma with a massive amount of mods, and not just Steam workshop ones, all kinds.

I tried to replicate all his mods on my installation as a proof of concept, but after over 2 hours, it still didn't work.

Having really solid and easy modding would be awesome.
