Looking at the github for ManyMC:

if you use ManyMC you can change the icon for each instance and that's what shows up in the dock and u can install mods directly from the interface from curseforge and some others

Hi, I had this same issue for a while! For me, I fixed this via downloading and using a m1 version of MultiMC called ManyMC https://github.com/MinecraftMachina/ManyMC

Download ManyMC it’s like multiMC but native for m1 macs I’ve been using it for 2 months now it runs great I think I have like 15 instances all modded and Theres a different Java u need to run it’s In the GitHub description get both Java 8 and 17 latest version of minecraft runs on 17 https://github.com/MinecraftMachina/ManyMC https://github.com/MinecraftMachina/ManyMC

Use ManyMC, it'll do all the patching and other workarounds for you :)

I would recommend ManyMC if you're having trouble. It allows for downloading premade packs or creating your own.

I use ManyMC, it’s a form of MultiMC that runs most Minecraft versions natively. I highly recommend it for both Forge and vanilla.

oh lmao you need to use this then: https://github.com/MinecraftMachina/ManyMC

i would highly recommend ManyMC, since it automatically patches in M1 support. I’ve been using it for months and it works flawlessly.

No, not really. No one was in charge at the beginning. It was a community project with multiple people having the administrative role at the same time. LennyMcLennington was one of the contributers, but not really an important one. But he removed the administrative rights from the actually important people. Devs like flowln and Scrumplex played a much bigger role. Even after half a year being the only developer at the PolyMC-Project Lenny still heasn't caught up with what other conributers had done in a few months before. See: https://github.com/PolyMC/PolyMC/graphs/contributors

Could I suggest trying a different launcher such as PolyMC? You can get this on deck in Linux linkand sign into your microsoft account to access Java. This version also has the benefit of you being able to get modpacks.

It's still open source, the repo hasn't moved. https://github.com/PolyMC/PolyMC/

The issue is: the main developer freaked out, made a post ranting about political bs, kicked everyone from the GitHub project and now it's been 2 months since it hasn't been updated. The developers who used to contribute to "PolyMC" moved from the "PolyMC" project to the "PrismLauncher" one after the drama.

There was no prompting or provocation towards lenny at all. The code of conduct existed for ages before lenny deleted it on oct 17 2022: https://github.com/PolyMC/PolyMC/commits/358f080c76dbdfc65f32e08448a5e38b78d2bab0/CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md

First, it's gio that handles trash in SteamOS. Second, after digging into PolyMC's code, it also leverages trash. Was added roughly 7 months ago in this commit: https://github.com/PolyMC/PolyMC/commit/02f30de1c11fa53e61c199032a3280afe618e3b2
