In this video I talk about the hell of mod dependencies and a very good solution: a package manager called Portmod: https://gitlab.com/portmod/portmod

Linux chad
Nexus mod pages have dependancies, there's a drop-down list with requirements and "mods requiring this file",
I remember downloading old and obscure mods and finding out later their requirements were written only in their description, but otherwise it's reliable.
The official nexus manager, Vortex, would probably not include this, since they want you to wait before every download unless you buy premium.
The closes thing I have seen to this is probably "wabbajack, open source modlist installer", but haven't used it yet, so IDK.
Thanks dude!
Awesome video! Just a clarification, the GZDoom support doesn't work yet. I just added a repository for it awhile back, and never got around to actually making it work lol.
This is amazing! I'm going to need to give this a shot!
