Nexus has quite a few. However, use them at your own risk. Mod packs or collections might work fine with the original user's computer, but there's no guarantee that they will with yours. If any mod within the collection causes problems, it can be extremely difficult to diagnose. Which is why I will never use them. I build mods the old-school way ..... one at a time, and test each as I go, trouble-shooting any issues, before moving on to the next. Sure, it takes a lot longer, but in the end, you are more likely to have a stable load order, and not suffer crashes for unknown reasons. Just my 2 cents on it.

The top ones all seem to be waifu mods

Unless you know what mods you want, you really can't find them.
Nexus has a ton of mods, my personal favriote is Sim Settlements 2 - which is like Professional AAA studio quality.

Remember this is a Mod. Yet if you watched the trailer you may think it's an actual DLC

if *that* happens, it's a you problem!
Not trying to be insulting or anything with that, most mods are stable and the game won't just random crash like that, *IF*, you chose mods that work together and don't have those issue's in the first place.
Make sure you read the posts and bugs tabs of the mods in question because others will post any incompatibilities there, and some may even reply with patches to fix them.
"ELFX" and the "pre-vis" to repair the mechanists lair for instance.

Just read everything and take note of it and your game -won't- crash.

Also, start small... add maybe 10 tops and build on it gradually. You'll find it'll be much easier to do and it won't crash either.

Mod collections are very bad ideas.

Research every single individual mod before installing them separately. There's no reason to blindly trust that these collections are going to work together, or on your computer, or at all.

^^^^ "Collections" and those Wabbajack things should not be a thing. Too many ppl download those and go to these forums or elsewhere when things don't work right or need a previous version of a mod that the mod author does not have available.

Indeed, if even one of the individual mods must be updated it might break all the rest, and you'll have to figure out which it is, more trouble than it's worth.

Choose your mods individually and with research on their bugs and conflicts before putting them on your computer.

Either that or go right ahead and throw a collection on and don't come looking for help with it when they break because it's literally on you for doing it without planning first.
