What PollyMC-Continued is
PollyMC-Continued is a free Minecraft launcher for Linux, macOS, and Windows. It can launch the full game with offline accounts without requiring a Microsoft account, while also supporting normal Microsoft accounts and Authlib-injector authentication servers. Each Minecraft instance has its own folder for mods, resource packs, and settings. The launcher supports multiple mod loaders, manages Java runtimes, and updates automatically. Users can save and load skins locally, then serve them in-game through the built-in offline skin agent. A bot manager lets users add bots, connect them to servers, control them from a built-in console, and script action sequences. Ctrl+Shift+P opens a searchable command palette for launcher actions. The Qt-based interface is designed to use low system resources and includes themes and customization. The makers state that all code is available under GPL-3.0. The site directs users to Discord for team discussions and development involvement. The Free plan costs nothing.
