Limo’s Linux focus is its clearest constraint: readers using Windows or macOS may need a different tool, while its Flatpak workflow currently supports Bethesda Steam games. Its free plan has no stated limits, but there are no paid pricing details. When switching, weigh operating-system support and the games or mod sources you need against differences in deployment, game coverage, and discovery. Some alternatives focus on Minecraft projects or particular games, while others cover more platforms or offer multiple ways to manage mods.
