I'm collecting statistics on which Minecraft launchers people use, just out of curiosity.
Which launcher do you currently use, and why? I'd love to hear your reasons (performance, features, mod support, etc.).
Thanks in advance!
[SOLVED : Thanks for your help]
Hello everyone, I've spent countless hours playing Minecraft on Xbox 360 and PS4, but I've never had the chance to play on pc before. Now that I have bought a pc, I've finally bought Minecraft but I'd like to know if I should use the official Minecraft launcher or another one. I'm on Windows and I'm only going to play Minecraft java. I'll not be using any mod, except for Optifine and some shaders. I'm just a casual player, so I don't really need a pvp-focused launcher or anything like that
What should I do? Thanks for your help :)
Good day to all, I am here to ask what is the best launcher for Minecraft as of now?
It may be stupid to ask since there's already an Official Minecraft Launcher but I really want a Launcher that can install a mod or just create your own modpack automatically. I know there's Curseforge or Modrinth official launcher but I heard there are some mods that cant be downloaded from Curseforge and Modrinth. Thats what I heard of atleast from a video on youtube that was from 2024.
I have some launchers that I've heard was good
-
Prism Launcher

Heard it was good for some people and has the mods from both Curseforge and Modrinth, but I also heard that it isnt that easy to use and doesnt automatically install Java itself.
-
GDLauncher

Now this was almost promising to me. Yes this launcher can install mods from Curseforge and Modrinth. It says it runs nice and well but I do have some suspicions. It has some ads in it which "helps" and support the creators behind the development. I am not directly saying "it's a scam launcher", I'm just having trust issues due to past experience of being gullible.

ATlauncher

This recommended launcher was like "a Launcher from the heavens above" kind of recommendation that was said to me. It can run smoothly, can install java automatically, can easily update any modpacks you have and its very easy to use. Now from how I have heard this... it sounded so bias honestly. And thats all. Since it has no ads, my trust issues compared to the GDlauncher is a bit better but still wouldn't trust it unless I try it.
You can all convince me whether or not the launcher thats recommended is good or not, I'm just struggling to pick here. (P.S. I havent bought Minecraft yet thats why I asked first which launcher is the best to use just for a good first experience).
