minecraftlaunchercomparison's Issues

Add start times row

I'd like to see start times of each launcher. With the CurseForge App, you should measure how long it takes to boot Overwolf+CF, Overwolf+CF+MCL, CF (standalone) and CF (standalone) + MCL. I initially used MultiMC for just modded Minecraft but switched to it completely when Mojang introduced their new Electron launcher due to its awful launch times.

I think the most relevant statistic of time is how long it takes until you can click play. Second is using the launcher for other purposes like updating mods, finding/installing modpacks, etc.

add distributions row (packages)

some launchers are easier to obtain than others, there should be a row listing all distributions.
e.g. aur, nix, scoop, choco, winget, copr, homewbrew

if I'm not too lazy, then with links too.

Vanilla launcher has instance support

The vanilla launcher supports multiple instances, which can be different versions, different screen sizes, have different JVM args, and be in separate folders. They also recently added a "Quick Launch" feature that allows you to launch pinned instances with one click.

Add Modrinth App column

Add CurseForge (standalone) column
