Trouble getting RaftModding for Raft on Linux to work (lemmy.world)

Vanilla Raft runs fine. From steam, I set it to run with compatibility layer Proton 9.0-4.

When I follow the modding site's instructions here, Bottles launches steam, which launches the mod loader, which asks me to find steam's Raft folder for it. But I can't find it.
Within the file navigation window that pops up, I go to Z:\ drive, then \mnt\thatoneHDDfullofsteamgames\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Raft, but the Raft exe isn't shown.

What should I do? Or is there another way I should try?

I'm sending this from my phone, so I apologize I'm not sure what the best way to provide clear screenshots is

Scrolling through their Discord, that particular mod doesn't work on the latest version of the game as it's long out of date. You aren't likely to find another client or server that is hosting it with it actually working. Checking the mod listing page, it just claims untested on latest version.

Unfortunately a lot of the more useful information for the RaftModding ecosystem is all gated behind Discord.
