I’m taking the dive and switching from windows this weekend. My wife and I like to play modded Minecraft and I was wondering if that’s possible on mint? Does anyone know a way to make Minecraft run on Linux and if so, if it can run mods as well? Please share your knowledge on how to do it if it’s possible.

      If you are looking for Steam Deck compatibility, PrismLauncher has a page for bootstrapping it to look nice on Deck. PrismLauncher does also support controller navigation, though this breaks for me on my Steam Controller when using SteamInput rather Xinput. Perhaps this is different for the deck’s controls?

      Obviously for desktop, there isn’t much point to doing this unless you really make use of big picture mode.
