I read people complained that ME1’s character creator was ass. I guess it must have gotten that reputation by being kind of ass for making a dude, because my Shep was a badass bitch. Voice actress was on top of things too. She’s by far the most memorable custom character I played.
Until ME3 where they yassified her from a 40-something war veteran to a glossy-skinned 25 year old lifestyle vlogger. Interestingly that made me - a cis man - feel viscerally connected to the injunction to look a certain way for the male gaze, and I got so fucking mad at bioware during that intro cinematic.
I’m in the same boat, want FemShep, always romance Tali. The ME2 LE romance mod is pretty painless. Unfortunately, last I checked, the modder never finished the ME3 LE mod. There’s a way to force it in ME3 by hacking the save file and it’ll still get you there, but it won’t be as seamless.
I am going through LE on Linux right now with my wife. I installed the ME3Tweaks Mod Manager using WINE and then installed mods through it designating my LE1, LE2, and LE3 directories in the Steam installation.
I have only installed the ME2 QoL mod of 1 probe getting all resources for a planet (after my wife experienced the tedium of probing planets for resources) so we could get back to playing. That mod has worked flawlessly so I would assume mods being installed through that Mod Manager are potentially just as stable.

My Shepard was celibate, can’t waste time on romance when you’ve got:
Honestly, FemShep is so much better, she’s more richly developed as a character than BroShep ever was.
She’s my Canon Shep because Jennifer Hale did such a great job.

Okay, but can she white guy shuffle dance at the club?
Just played it again after 10 years. I forgot how truly janky the first one is even after the remaster.
Circle hacking, my beloved
13 years since mass effect 3 came out.
Even with the controversial ending (which I didn’t find a big deal) it felt like they were on a roll…
Tali or Legion? Legion.
Porque no los dos?
Why not both? That’s the path I chose!
I’m scared to mod because I’m on Linux and playing LE, so I don’t know if the mods would even work
Its not the easiest process, but me le modding has been figured out. Here’s a guide made for steam deck but the steps should apply to most distros. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2924374014
Oh I didn’t mod. She took off her mask. That’s like, the sexiest thing! Good enough for me!
