prim is the best launcher imo, I wouldn't use anything else personally.

For some reason it doesn't work on my ububtu 24.04 (Gnome) and I've already tried different things to try to get it to work, but it just wouldn't, so I'm using atlauncher which is very similar though texture packs aren't 100% as good

What method did you use for install? Ubuntu shows a snap version in their store, its not official and maintained by Ubuntu not us. We have found it has a fair few issues that aren't present in other packages.

I would reccomend downloading from flathub which you would need to setup manually on Ubuntu. Otherwise our appimage on our website https://prismlauncher.org

We do also have a third party build that is more stable then the snap for Ubuntu on makedeb.

have you tried the flatpak? it should include any dependencys you need. im on arch and it works great from the aur, but i know that does not really help you.

Yes I have and much more

How does it fail exactly? As I recall, flatpak aren’t distro dependent.
