Oh shit, you just mentioned my hyperfixation. Or at least, one of them.
I have had success (after a bit of finagling for the 4GB patch and whatnot) with running Viva New Vegas on the Steam Deck, and imagine that if you try to keep a tight control on what you add beyond that and check regularly you'll be fine. Essentially, any mod circa ~2016-2020 or below should be heavily suspicious, and anything from 2010-2016 should be ignored pretty much entirely.
You may have to use a Linux compatible Mod Organizer 2, but just ask questions in the Viva New Vegas discord server if you're unsure, the folks there are very helpful.
Modding has come a long way for New Vegas.
Let me know if you have any questions! I have been modding and remodding New Vegas for a decade at this point
My last Bethesda modding experience was Skyrim and I was dropping mod files directly into the WINE prefix and it(almost) just worked as I recall.
I found this: https://gist.github.com/richardgaywood/e64eeb162062adb501fd3d35add9a0e8 but donno if I wanna get that involved. I sort of wish they had an AppImage like r2ModManager lol. That thing works perfectly fine for games installed via proton. Like I'm impressed with how simple it is.
Can confirm that those are broadly the steps I went through, so yes, it should work if you want to go through with it.
