The Nexus team continue building up their newer cross-platform open source Nexus Mods App that will eventually replace Vortex. Version 0.7.2 was released recently further expanding what you can do with it.
With this update the UI has seen some further refinements like the Games, Loadouts, and Health Check pages to bring them up to date along with a bunch of new icons. They've also made improvements to how they handle File Conflicts. For players of Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord, they've added in support for the Bannerlord Software Extender.
Other changes and known issues:
Technical Changes
- Free users will now see a modal prompting them to upgrade to Premium when clicking the "Download all" buttons for Collections. Downloading mods individually is still possible.
- When a loadout is removed, the associated Workspace data is now cleaned up.
- Reduced the number of log messages to make troubleshooting issues easier.
Bugfixes
- Fixed an issue where collections that include bundled mods would never be installable as it would always show pending downloads.
- Fixed an issue where users in timezones 6 or more hours ahead of UTC would be unable to download collections.
Known Issues
- Stardew Valley (Native Linux version) is not detected when installed via Heroic Launcher on Linux. The Windows version of the game can be used instead until this issue is fixed.
- Bundled mods included with collections do not appear in the UI but are still applied to your game.
- The success rating for collections is not showing the correct value.
- The game version is not checked when adding a collection meaning you can install outdated mods without being warned.
- The Collections (WIP) page is not filtered by game.
- The "Switch View" option does not persist in the Library/Installed Mods view.
- The "Load Order" heading toggle does not persist in the Load Order view.
This app works across Linux (including Steam Deck) and Windows.

Tried this the other day and it was an absolute breeze to use. After all the pain I went through to get minor Skyrim mods working on Mod Manager 2, this is an incredible step forward. I can't wait for them to add Skyrim support though, so I can start my... fourth?... play through.

Having a decent cross-platform modding tool is going to be such a big boost. Not just specifically for us, but also for people moving between platforms to be able to use the same familiar tool. I'm really hopeful about this one and it's looking good but slow going.
