I get what you're saying about the overabundance of modding sometimes, but it's also important to remember that different types of modding can serve different needs within the community. Sure, some mods might feel unnecessary, but others provide a fresh experience and keep things interesting. In fact, if you're into mods that actually enhance gameplay and add value, check out this website(https://thespykegame.com/) for some solid content. There are mods out there that can truly elevate the experience, so it's not all just based on vibes!
The mod to user ratio in some of the communities is way out of whack. Just start with one mod who does nothing except manage spam and actual harmful content posted explicitly to be harmful. If the community ever grows so much that more mods are required, add only as needed and not more. And do the absolute minimum to make the community a good place to be, so it has a chance to grow and flourish.
