As in the topic title, Are they compatible to work together? Or should i unsubscribe from everything in the workshop and redownload the mods i want from the nexus?

Mods are mods, no matter where they come from. Workshop mods will update automatically, though. Nexus mods wait for you to decide to upgrade.

ok thanks. I'm assuming that the workshop and nexus mod manager just install the files and bascially remember them for easy uninstall. while its the skyrim launcher data files that sorts the mods into order?

That's correct.

ok thanks very much musicman. i can get that nexus mod manager without worrying about already installed mods now.

The only downside is the extra confusion from using both the Nexus and Workshop.

Load order can also be changed in the mod manager, and the data files list will adjust accordingly.
