FYI Prism Launcher is a Minecraft launcher ( !prismlauncher@lemmy.world )

*Data is based on 1908 publicly shared crash logs because no telemetry is collected

It is most commonly installed with Flatpak.

The most common graphics kernel driver is amdgpu

i have seen people dualboot linux just because minecraft runs so much better compared to windows

I use it since the login requirements are insane for vanilla Minecraft.

I hope I didn't spam the crash records, because a week ago I kept running into errors with Prism launcher. Turns out that my Microsoft account somehow got disconnected, found through digging and running the app through the terminal. It was reported in the GUI as an "unknown error." Please, tell me if it's the Microsoft component that's failing! (Maybe I should make a PR for that...)

Installed it recently when the legacy launcher stopped working.

Or maybe it crashes more on Linux (or people on Linux are more inclined to share crash logs)

That's probably true

I know why many people prefer Minecraft Java Edition, but I prefer Bedrock. Java, as a language, is so bloated and terrible that I can't get behind it.
