Theyll just charge as much as each individual can afford and pocket the difference.

I only really notice them late at night, screaming around a residential road at 11pm is what matters.
During the day its just people having a hobby as you say.

You control your own disk but by putting it on nexus you’ve put it into their repo and said others can depend on it.

Preventing removal (from lists) was just necessary.
Its not unreasonable to say if you release a mod and others depend on it you cant change your mind. Imagine if anyone could remove their contribution to the linux kernel at any point.
Its not about them taking ownership, its about them preventing petty drama which is actually the most important job for a mod site.

Nexus does have collections, modpacks installed via its own modding tool.

That jank engine is what makes the bethesda games modding community work.

- Comment on "My 'Microsoft will probably be a good steward of the brand' statement isn't aging well" - id Software co-founder John Carmack speaks out after devastating Xbox layoffs 2 months ago:
Wait, the plan was to get recurring revenue out of single player games by tying them to gamepass.
This failed, for entirely predictable reasons, and now MS is holding a load of very mature, stable game studios and needs them to male checks notes double the revenue (actually, profit). This simply isnt posssible.
Theres a story out from early in the year about MS requiring a 30% profit margin across the firm which when applied to games is just nonsense. Not ambitious or unrealistic, nonsense.
Games is a terrible fit for MS and the companies who allowed it to buy them for stability are realising that.

"You can’t rule out the possibility that executives are idiots, but that shouldn’t be your default belief. I don’t think there is any obvious path that would have doubled the revenue from Id games.

I say this a lot but in general theyre not stealing it to eat, theyre stealing large amounts of high value meat to sell it on down the pub.
Theyre actually preventing people from buying good food by nicking it all. We are not talking about someone taking one loaf of bread because theyre hungry.

At least gamepass and the ms aquisition spree gave us Pentiment.
Seems a small thing to have released after buying half of the industry but thats microsofts problem. Maybe they can sell them all again when they get bored.
