the capitalization problem and the way I solve it

As you know, the most common problem in mods of linux is the capitalization one. Instead of using links, we can use a case-insensitive system called ciopfs to solve this thoroughly. Here is what I have done in ubuntu 20.04, and at least most popular mods work in my computer.
  1. open your terminal, and type commands below.
  2. sudo apt-get install ciopfs
  3. cd ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/workshop/content/
  4. rm -rf 289070;mkdir 289070
  5. mkdir .289070
  6. ciopfs .289070 289070
  7. finally, append "ciopfs /home/your_usename/.steam/steam/steamapps/workshop/content/.289070 /home/your_username/.steam/steam/steamapps/workshop/content/289070". to your ~/.profile file.
  8. open your steam and reinstall all mods.
