Honestly, no I have not. Does it work well?
it works for me on Manjaro.
Huh, ok, I'll try that out later and update y'all. Thanks for the advice!
Still had some problems with it since I would have it work on desktop, but not gamemode...

Did you enable the Steam Tinker Launch compatibility tool?
or use this custom launch command: steamtinkerlaunch %command%
Yeah, I did that but then I did the non STL which still launched SKSE, but not the mods. Do I still need STL and MO2?
you do need to launch the game through stl and mo2 for the mods to work
Ah I see. Thanks for the help!
I've got this up and running with Vortex. I can't give you an exact guide, because I just kept clobbering it together until it started working. Also, this was done right before the new Steam update. It probably doesn't affect it, but IDK.
Pikdum's Tools for setting up Vortex: This video (read description!) seems to get you most of the way there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0lC-alUAGg&t Tools themselves. https://github.com/pikdum/steam-deck
Once it's all set up I simply go to desktop mode, browse to the mod I want in Firefox (or use the "send tab to device" option from my PC), click on the Mod Manager download, it prompts for an application, Vortex shows up in that list, download and install via Vortex, then I close Vortex, run the "Skyrim Post-Deploy" shortcut that the Pikdum's toolkit placed on my desktop, switch to gaming mode, and game away.
In the end the setup wasn't too bad. I ended up downloading a collection from Nexus and I install/remove mods as I want by switching to desktop, using vortex, post-deploy script, and switching back to gaming mode.
Edit: and yes I also have everything on the SD
