Has anyone used the mod manager by Nexus Mods? If so, does it work well or do you prefer to install the mods yourself?

Vortex works great. In general, you'll want to use some kind of mod manager and in the Skyrim realm, the main alternative to Vortex is Mod Organizer 2. I have heard that there are some exceptionally fiddly setups for which Mod Organizer is the better choice, but Vortex is a very good one. Much better than the old Nexus Mod Manager.

Installing them yourself is basically irreversible, and things can get complicated if you don't have a mod manager keeping track of stuff.
