Vortex & Decky Questions (piefed.zip)

So I've had my deck for about a year, basically using steam cloud to swap between my laptop and deck. For my vortex question, I play some modded games using vortex, specifically cyberpunk. But how do I install vortex and for simpler mods is it plug and play when it comes to installing simple mods? Like once vortex is installed can I just download the mods with vortex. Most of my modding (like in noita for example) has been through steam workshop which syncs mods and load order across the two machine, but there are exceptions like the previously mentioned cyberpunk as well as skyrim (i think my modlist is too demanding for the deck)

As for Decky I saw this post and i know decky is for plugins and thats really it. Where can I download it and what else does it do?

As i was typing this out i was bouncing around thoughts, so hopefully theres a coherent questions somewhere in here

Edit: for decky I also have emudeck, decky says it can add acheivments and other things, what do those add?

Alternative option:

Learn and use LIMO.

https://github.com/limo-app/limo

I've been running a heavily modded CP77 for about a year now, on a Steam Deck, via LIMO.

Its basically Linux native MO2, available as a flatpak.

https://flathub.org/en/apps/io.github.limo_app.limo

It also works with literally any game, if you set it up to.

But, it doesn't do load order imports / nexus bulk mod collection downloads.

But but, it does support FOMODs, LOOT, and has quite useful collision checkers and managers, and can interface with the Nexus API.
