Support Linux for Curseforge Launcher

Many many linux users play Minecraft, not only cause it's great but because there aren't many excellent games that support Linux. I'm trying to download RLCraft 2.9 today but being unable to load the Curseforge launcher is making this difficult. Please allow us to continue playing great mods by letting us use the Curseforge Launcher.

    Thank you for the suggestion! Minecraft is now available on the Linux CurseForge app.

    As Hearthstone is working great on linux (Proton and the native version) i really would welcome support for it. And maybe the firestone app also ...

    Is the CF Client officialy supported in Linux Mint? I ask because i dont want to open a new idea.
    As i use the AppImage Version it should work in my oppinion but support is telling me, that only Ubuntu is supported. I ask because since a few weeks the CF Client wont start and only is telling me, that there is an network error.

    Error message in cli is:

    10:47:10.741 › [CoreServiceImpl] Failed to connect to mods agent. Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'name')

    Okay we have WoW but the biggest strategy game is still missing: League of Legends. Works wonderful with Proton! ..now in 2023 it feels like its running smoother than on windows which honestly many games feels like they are running better on linux than on its original operating system. Since Proton is so far actually including kernel feature esync/fsync there seems to be lesser overhead in the background. So add it to the roadmap please :-) Btw 5 of my active friends using linux as main system and gaming. My whole family including any sub family members are on linux, too. They're fascinated how smart it is to use linux in 2023. No one is looking backwards to windows anymore. Linux support for curseforge is really awesome ! THANKS!

    Given the evergrowing popularity of modpacks such as RLCraft and Vault Hunters, I'd also like to ask for Linux support. I'll gladly go through the necessary hoops so the Curseforge Launcher can be released distribution independent! (Although judging from the WoW launcher, it seems like much has been figured out already?)

    Thanks!

    Best alternative for Linux for now is ATLauncher. I am happy to still be able to play curse modpacks
