Would switching all my mods from the Steam Workshop to Nexus affect my current saves?
I currently use workshop for some mods but recently installed nexus. Both systems work fine side by side. However, I would like to switch to using nexus only. I'd prefer just using one modding app for simplicity sake. Can anyone tell me, if I unsubscribe from the workshop version and install the nexus version of a mod (particularly follower mods), will I lose things like my followers, the items they are carrying, etc?

Can you mix steam and Nexusmods?
Yes, they can work together. It still is not recommended, but be sure the mods themselves are compatable with each other.Why are modders leaving Nexusmods?
As reported in PC Gamer, the move came as a protest against a new policy on the site that stops modders from deleting their mod files.

The central hub for downloading mods is the Steam Workshop. Login to Steam in a browser or your Steam Client, navigate to the workshop and subscribe to mod. The mod will be automatically downloaded.Are steam Workshop files safe?
I would say that the Steam workshop as a whole is pretty safe. Just don't go clicking on unknown links in the comments, those are a different story. TF2 and CS:GO also have map workshops which do involve downloading files.[OUTDATED] The Steam Workshop, Mods, and Modding Games on Steam Deck
