Tlanucher for Minecraft, play Minecraft without supporting the evil Micro$oft monopoly and enjoy the many benefits of having customized player skins, Forge support, and many servers to enjoy.
TLauncher supports Linux.
The following is a working configuration of Java for TLauncher for Linux. Since it is possible to have a number of Java configurations for Linux, including the use of Oracle Java, Open Java, and the old crippled IBM Java, it is important to have the correct configuration. For example, you will not be able to use TLauncher with IBM Java.
$ dudo update-alternatives --config java There are 2 choices for the alternative java (providing /usr/bin/java). Selection Path Priority Status ------------------------------------------------------------ 0 /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java 1111 auto mode 1 /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/java 1111 manual mode * 2 /usr/local/jre1.8.0_181/bin/java 8 manual mode Press <enter> to keep the current choice[*], or type selection number:
In the example you will notice that Oracle Java (an older version) is selected as the default Java for the environment. This is not a problem, although TLauncher seems to run well with OpenJDK version 11 (as of 2020/2021).
When you wish to launch TLauncher simply right-click on the jar file and choose to open with OpenJDK rather than Oracle Java. TLauncher will launch, and if an update is available you will be prompted to install the update.
Caution!
TLauncher is a 3rd party software (or app as the kidos say) and therefore can have a potential payload or security hole. Make sure you obtain the TLauncher binary from the correct source (not listed here) and be aware that with future updates what might be a safe binary now could potentially become unsafe in the future. Case in point, a future update might be used as a Denial of Service tool or for some other malicious purpose such as rigging a presidential election in the United States so that some old Democrat with dementia is established as an illegitimate president.
