Upstream changelog: https://github.com/PrismLauncher/PrismLauncher/releases/tag/8.0
(Imcomplete) list of changes in 8.0 relevant to PollyMC:
- Prism has dropped support for Mojang accounts
- https://github.com/PrismLauncher/PrismLauncher/pull/1656
- Added it back to PollyMC primarily since the Mojang authentication
code is also used for authlib-injector accounts. Some users may also
still want to be able to log in to Mojang accounts for some reason:
https://github.com/fn2006/PollyMC/issues/115#issuecomment-1805384658,
even if they do not provide authentication to multiplayer servers.
- To my surprise, I could still log in to a Mojang account, get its
skin, and launch the game. Authentication to servers, of course, did
not work.
- Tested: logging into authlib-injector, Mojang, and MSA accounts and
launching the game.
- Prism has added a built-in updater for Windows and Linux that I assume
provides similar functionality to Sparkle on macOS:
https://github.com/PrismLauncher/PrismLauncher/pull/1268. There is a
Launcher_UPDATER_GITHUB_REPO variable in CMakeLists.txt that specifies
the repo checked by the updater. I have changed this to the PollyMC
repository, and since PollyMC follows almost the same CI/release
patterns as Prism Launcher, it might work with PollyMC, too, but I
have not tested it yet.
- Add macOS support to Nix
- https://github.com/PrismLauncher/PrismLauncher/pull/1485
- Untested
- The "PollyMC-Linux-8.0.tar.gz" and similar build artifacts were
renamed to "PollyMC-Linux-8.0-Qt5.tar.gz" to match their
"PollyMC-Linux-8.0-Qt6.tar.gz" counterparts.
- Removed Windows MSVC Legacy builds
- Removed Quilt Beacon toggle, the beacon is now always disabled:
https://github.com/PrismLauncher/PrismLauncher/pull/1547,
https://github.com/PrismLauncher/meta/pull/23
- Prism removed FTB support in 7.0, but I tested creating an FTB
instance to make sure it still works in 8.0

Fixes a bug where the wrong account could be marked as "in use" when the
game is launched if there are multiple accounts that share the same
profile ID. This can lead to the launcher trying to refresh an account
that's currently in use by the game, leading to "Invalid session" errors
in-game.

This makes the account system much more modular
and makes it treat errors as something recoverable,
unless they come directly from the MSA refresh token
becoming invalid.
This makes the tokens not expire when such errors happen.
Only applies to MSA, not the XBox and Mojang steps afterwards.
Further testing and improvements are still needed.
- We now use the new endpoint for loggiong in via XBox tokens (/launcher/login)
- We now check game entitlements instead of only relying on MC profile presence
- Accounts can now be added even when they do not have a profile
- The launcher will guide you through selecting a Minecraft name if you don't have one yet
