      How do you like the prism launcher, does it work well on linux? I’ve just been using the standard .deb launcher.

        It works well and is available as native package or Flatpak. It includes features such as profiles, mod updating (fetches newer versions from Curseforge and Modrinth), in-launcher mod downloading and several other useful features and plenty of configuration options.

        Iirc it was an offshoot of the PolyMC group made when one of their devs went rogue, and I think PolyMC used to be one of the more popular choices for linux

          originally there was multiMc,

          then PolyMc was created as an offshoot of multi due to drama.

          then prism was created as an offshoot of polyMc because one of the devs acted like an twat

          Well, VoxeLibre (formerly Mineclone 2) is not quite feature complete compared to the latest Minecraft release. It’s got feature parity more-or-less up to 1.12 but a few odds and ends are incomplete or behave differently from vanilla Minecraft in subtle ways. I expect the situation to improve over time.

          I will say that Minetest’s performance is loads better than Java OG Minecraft. Night and day.

            Does it contain mobs? I feel like the few Minecraft-like creations I have seen have mostly focused on the building aspect

    Java via PojavLauncher on Android, and Bedrock via Waydroid on Linux.

    I also have Minetest on both.

        Runs nice and smoothly with medium graphics settings on a Motorola g73, with just touch controls.

      Have you tried Bedrock? I’m curious how the two compare. I used PojavLauncher for about twenty minutes but for some reason it seemed like passive mobs (such as sheep) weren’t spawning as often as they do in Bedrock.

        Tried it, it won’t install from Aurora, and there’s some bug with the Play Store not installing anything and just saying pending. I tried Bedrock on my Linux computer though, as I said.

      You can use Java Minecraft on the Steam deck.

      There are various guides available to install it.

    I play Java edition on my NixOS desktop, although I also have my laptop running the same operating system and Java edition.

    I also play Bedrock edition on my Android phone sometimes, although it sucks on mobile. Very rarely, I play Minecraft on PS4.

    Only playing java on PC these days. I used to play the legacy edition a lot, but yk, there’s a reason its called the legacy edition now. I also have the bedrock edition on Switch since 2018, but I wasn’t prepared for the shitshow the it is. Haven’t played it for years though.
