Also, if you’re okay downloading and installing mods manually, many of them “just work”, even some of the more tricky ones if you’re willing to tinker a bit. Some games have mod installers that are cross platform (for example, Satisfactory Mod Manager has a linux version and it works great).

Skyrim and Satisfactory.

Linux has come a long way since I last tried it ~15 years ago

100% this. Linux has been my daily driver since ~2005 and it seems like suddenly one day I went from playing tux racer and trying to get Skyrim to work to some degree with wine to buying games on steam with little fear of having to anything more than choose proton experimental and maybe add gamemoderun to the settings. It’s a completely different world now.
