why can we get mods on curse forge?

[smokey]

the creators likely arent uploading mods there

Curseforge is spyware and steam workshop integration is difficult. Thunderstore is pretty much home to all co-op games using the Unity engine

you can also get mods off nexus but they require accounts to download anything
i stopped using nexus when that became a requirement

How is the Curseforge website spyware what?

Anyways, @OP the reason why is because mod creators aren't uploading them there. It's tha simple really. Nexus Mods is usually also a very popular mod hosting site, and some Lethal Mods are hosted there but very few in comparison to Thunderstore.

I don't know why the specific website it is hosted on really matters, curseforge, nexus, thunderstore, they all practically work the same, you get a download button that downloads the files and then you dont have to worry about it anymore.

Only thing that may change is the launcher you are using but in all honesty, if you are playing games that dont natively support mods, expect that different games will require different (sometimes their own) mod launcher.

See above, there are only 4 pages worth of mods posted on Nexus, that's less than 80 mods. Thunderstore has like 80+ pages of mods. Up to you to decide whether that's viable or not.

curseforge uses the same app (overwolf) as thunderstore. People just tend to have platform preferences and whichever platform gets more/better mods for a game first. Nexus tends to have bethesda titles and a lot of other large games. Curseforge is mostly minecraft and a few other.
