We’re also committing to supporting Vortex on SteamOS. We’ll be targeting vanilla Steam hardware like the Steam Deck and Steam Machine. We won’t be officially supporting any other configurations, but as Vortex is an open source project community developers will be free to extend support for their preferred Linux distros as they please.

Oh good centralized under github instead of Nexus, that'll solve all the problems!

I'm not sure how long you've been modding games, but nexus is a treasure despite its problems and the way it has scaled was to suit the need of the userbase.

Don't get me wrong, flathub is great, but there's an insane amount of other variables in the mix with modding games that makes it much more complex then just downloading a package. Not to mention the entire ecosystem built out (thinking things like wabbajack, mod organizer, etc)
