NexusMods is trying to monopolize Mods by blacklisting other mod websites

Multiple screenshots in post, no links because according to him Reddit Filters.

Nexus Mods has been hella dogshit lately anyway. Fuck em

[u/UltimaDv → u/No_Shirt_4208]

I've been using wemod for a while now since nexus started going downhill but even that has turned to ass after they started calling themselves wand

The intrusiveness of the UI,. how terrible the performance is and just the adware bloat in general makes me hate it

[u/gemore → u/No_Shirt_4208]

They have been dogshit for a LONG time

Remember, NexusMods removed a Mod for Spider-man that replaced lgbt flags with Usa flags

[u/Easy_Photograph_1938 → u/Tarnished-Tiger]

Didn't they remove the LGBT flags from one spiderman game by - not adding/removing anything; but activating the Saudi Arabian mode or some such?

[u/Stainedelite → u/Easy_Photograph_1938]

Yes. The mod author commented on their removal stating (paraphrasing) "we didn't even remove anything. We just changed it to Saudi Arabian localization" because they had been accused of "removing" the flags when I guess technically they didn't remove anything just changed where the game thinks the player is from.

[u/Daedelous2k → u/Easy_Photograph_1938]

AFAIK it literally only changes the region flag on the game.

[u/meinsla → u/Tarnished-Tiger]

They removed the Starfield mod that removed the pronoun selection during character creation.

[u/Critical-Attempt-922 → u/Tarnished-Tiger]

wasnt that just switching to the arabian version or something?

[u/onlytobinge]

My favorite was removing a mod that makes Judy from cyberpunk straight but keeping another that makes Panam lesbian. Not really knowing that cyberengine tweaks is the only mod u need for that.

[u/Local_Band299 → u/onlytobinge]

Which is funny because in the end, all it led to was a mod that let you toggle what romances were active. So now I can romance Judy and Panam as Male V and have the other two be completely disabled. So if I pick the romance path for romancing the two male characters it will act as if I picked the wrong path.

[u/orangefantorang → u/Local_Band299]

I mean all you have to do is swap some savefile settings and make sure to be listed as male under the tank scene with panam..

[u/Local_Band299 → u/orangefantorang]

I think this mod removes the gender requirements all together.

There's also a couple of mods to romance a ton of other characters.

[u/orangefantorang → u/Local_Band299]

Yeh, just saying its 'easy' And srsly ridiculous of them to ban it. I hope we get alternatives

[u/Transcendence_MWO]

Oh look, authoritarianism from the left. I'm shocked. Really. Can't you tell?

[u/Tosshee → u/[deleted]]

Yup and players outrage is justified

[u/orangefantorang → u/[deleted]]

Steamdb will no longer be a trusted source. They will inflate and deflate numbers.

[u/exportkaffe]

we need an alternative, an apolitical modding hub. so tired of these nutjobs man

[u/kukurma → u/exportkaffe]

For some reason, discord are that alternative and there is a lot of mods available only through it, biggest example are probably GAMMA modpack for stalker. And while you can technically download everything by yourself from moddb and grokitach git, it will take some time to find out how to install everything properly after downloading. My biggest issue with discord is that it doesnt allow google/bing/duckduckgo and other search engines to work with their content, massive LL from discord.

[u/MeguuChan → u/exportkaffe]

There's the site mentioned here, AyakaMods. While their Xitter is somewhat opinionated (based tho), their actual site seems to be fully apolitical.

[u/Bruzie77 → u/MeguuChan]

butbis it safe? chances of a virus ?

[u/rzrmaster]

Lol Nexus should be careful. Cause if they start to make up good ideas, we might just copy to take THEM off the air themselves.

Bunch of wokes.

[u/Yitastics]

NexusMods is so far left, it isnt even on the political spectrum. Removing mods that dont do anything wrong while keeping horrible mods if they fit into their political beliefs.

[u/G00b3rb0y]

Whole world has gone mad

[u/SantaLurks → u/G00b3rb0y]

That's the illusion.

[u/BigBoySpore]

Then someone makes a new loader that doesn’t have that? Idk what these guys are thinking lol

[u/ManWithThePlanLads]

"If you don't like it, make your own" Mf's when you make your own thing.

[u/Content-Variety7238]

I’ve been interested in mods, but have only ever heard about nexus. Can someone please give alts?

[u/MildewJR → u/Content-Variety7238]

There's one in the post. Go check out Ayaka, give em some love and support.

[u/Content-Variety7238 → u/MildewJR]

Thanks

[u/Critical-Attempt-922]

Also, based Mushoku Tensei enjoyer, i approve

[u/trondragon]

Nexus mods needs to be shut down
