Hello, thinking of giving Skyrim a go on Linux through Proton, does anyone have a resource that helped with getting some mods going? Can a mod manager be used ?

I'm curious, is SKSE even supported through proton? Not sure why it wouldn't but still curious.

Yes. There was briefly some RNG on getting it to start properly, but the SKSE dev found the issue and fixed it. All dll mods also work properly (at least last I checked). The biggest problem is setting up the mods - if you can get skyrim to see your modded directory properly, there shouldn't be any issues.

Nice, that's good to hear. I've only played Skyrim via proton once before I switched to local streaming, so I'm definitely not educated on how it works.
