I need help, I only play MInecraft 1.8.9 and it looks like this on every distro I use, with any launcher, this screenshot it taken on Arch Linux with LXDE and Prism Launcher. (on windows it works btw)

    i’ve had that before, it’s probably a java version issue

    1. install jre8-openjdk with pacman

    2. set java version for 1.8.9 to java 8, this can be done in instance settings depending on the launcher. prism launcher can auto-detect java

    old minecraft versions use java 8, newer ones use java 17
