Steam Workshop not offering versioning sucks for games that support multiple operating systems /u/Formal-Bread9422 Steam on Reddit

The ports can have different release cycles, meaning that a big content patch released on the main OS (Windows, most of the time) doesn’t always simultaneously release on the other clients as well. In that case, if a workshop mod needs to be patched in order to work with the new version of the game, it will most likely stop working for the other clients.

This problem might be super niche and rarely affect anyone, as I understand that the small non-Windows player base playing native Linux/OSX games with Steam Workshop support may not be the largest demographic. But it still bugs me, especially now, since I’m desperately waiting for the patch. It isn’t really interesting for me in terms of content, but it will allow me to use workshop mods again ^{^}

What do you guys think about it?
