After listening to this comment in my earlier post, I finally installed Linux in my new machine. I have almost set up everything for my use case save for support for playing Minecraft.

While many Linux switchers are keen to having maximum support and optimization for games, I don’t look forward to the same. I plan to having Minecraft as my one and only game in this machine and want to have as minimal dependencies set up for playing it as possible.

I intend to use the fabric version of MC with mod support on my machine with Iris Xe GPU. I am also comfortable with using a different launcher aside from the default one if it is safe and better to do so.

Could someone give me guidance on how I go around installing Minecraft according to my needs?

    Can’t you download FTB modpacks through Prism too?

      I’m looking at it right now and it has two tabs for FTB Legacy and FTB App Import.

      You can, but it has to be Prism 6.3 or older, as FTB support was removed beyond that

          FTB have heard countless complaints about it, and it’s evident they have not intention to reverse this decision. They did fix their own launcher, when older contracts finally expired, but it ultimately didn’t change much
