PollyMC is a Prism Launcher fork but with "offline mode" and works perfectly on my opinion. I recommend downloading the flatpak version as the appimage asks you for certain versions of Java that are easy to install but sometimes gets a little complicated.
And yes, Micro$hit can eat shit. I personally bought Minecraft but on the day I was forced to migrate my Mojang account to a Micro$oft account with the threat that "If I don't do it I'll lose access to my game" I delete my Mojang account and use PollyMC since.
PolyMC had some drama a while ago with a hostile takeover by a dev. The other original devs forked it and are now continuing the development at Prism launcher
edit: whoops! i made an error reading and didnt notice the two l's
Yes, that’s why I mentioned that it’s based on Prism Launcher. I wonder who still use PolyMC.
A friend of mine still used PolyMC since they didn't hear about the drama. Now they know and switched to Prism Launcher.
It's the same with people still using MultiMC, since many people just don't know Prism Launcher has more active development. Or they don't care.
There were some talks to migrating all PolyMC Flatpak installations to Prism Launcher, which was achieved by marking PolyMC as outdated on Flathub's repo and marking Prism Launcher as the newer version, which will result in Flatpak clients replacing PolyMC with Prism Launcher while moving data over. The only thing users would notice is that the icon and name on the apps list changed, since all worlds and instances would stay in place.
Unfortunately I think they didn't continue with this decision.
I use it because I don't want to break something while switching it to a different client; and it still gets updates.
You can literally paste your PolyMC files to Prism Launcher and it will work perfectly
