Please suggest QoL mods for the original TES IV: Oblivion (lemmygrad.ml)

With the remaster coming out I started looking into the original game since I had never played it. I found that a mod, NorthernUI, exists that adds controller support to the game. So I decided to install a GOG copy of the game on the Steam Deck.

I tried to get Mod Organizer to work but failed. But it turns out there is a native Linux mod manager called Limo Mod Manager that can work with Skyrim. The whole process of getting it work kept me up til 2AM.

So I have the original game installed now with NorthernUI and Unofficial X Patches for bugfixes.

Anyone has suggestions for more QoL mods that can smooth out the jankiness? Thanks.

Mart's monster mod OOO, and MOO all work together and make combat and equipment a bit more dynamic. Better cities, Unique landscapes and COBL make the world more lived in and detailed. Then there are all the amazing quest mods.

The biggest problem is the ram cap. If you get too many mods going at once you can overdo it and you won't even know till you are 10,20,40 hours in.
