For those of you who use mods, how do you deal with them being broken constantly with each update? It's not like EA updates this game once or twice a year. There have been 3 updates since I started p...

I have my EA app set to not update my games automatically. So on patch day I have the choice of upgrading or not. If You don't want to upgrade then use the 3 bar menu in the upper left corner of the app and set it to go offline. Sims 4 launches without the new updates applied.
Then I watch the the updates in Mod/CC Issues to see which mods are broken and I don't ever update until my mod list is cleared or updates. I may not get the new features right away, but I don't get the big headaches either.
That’s a good idea !! I disabled the auto update but when a patch is available I can only click update instead of play. Didn’t know we can circumvent this by going offline. Thanks.
For those of us who use lots of mods, we are extremely organized and may even use a Mod that keeps all of them organized for us. We are constantly checking for updates when new patches and updates are released because this will always happen. For the (WW) mod in question, it will always update whenever there is a new patch or game update. You can go back to the website to get the most current updated files. Make sure to follow the instructions when using the mods so they will work properly and clear your cache. I hope this helps a little! Don't give up! I enjoy mods and what they can add to the gameplay. I would also check the websites of the two broken mods to see if they are updated or still in use. Last thing: Don't forget to vet your sources and be careful when downloading mods. The recent cybersecurity issue affected many players across multiple devices so make sure to do your due dilligence and check your mods and computer system for malware.
