There is also preliminary modpack support! It can only download mods and is very unstable at the moment. If you know Rust, consider contributing to the PR.

CurseForge launcher finally launched on Linux! And it only supports... WoW?
Since you're on Linux, I suggest my CLI mod manager Ferium. It can download and update mods from modrinth, curseforge, and GitHub releases. It's super fast and UI is pretty good. The major downside right now is that it can't download mod packs (tracking issue)

Best Steam Deck games of all time based on multiple lists
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

Minecraft java edition
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.

Curseforge removes Sodium and Iris
It's still open source, the repo hasn't moved. https://github.com/PolyMC/PolyMC/

New User: I keep getting this error and I’m not sure how to fix it. I just barely bought a MC account.
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.

Is polymc safe to use now?
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

PSA: Steam Deck deletes PolyMC instances
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
