Hi, I recently re-installed minecraft after a long time not playing it. I’m using Manjaro linux as OS, which is different from the Linux distro I used in the past to play minecraft (I think it was Ubuntu). I have my old worlds (from v1.16) saved under ~/.minecraft/saves and I hoped they would appear again in the new installation after restoring this folder, but this isn’t the case. Also, I created a new world in the new installation but it doesn’t appear in the ~/.minecraft/saves folder. Where should I look for it? Is the location of the minecraft folder changed with the new releases?
Flatpak will sandbox most app data under $HOME/.var/app/. Of course it doesn’t tell you this because you’re supposed to already know this, stupid. (issue locked) (works as intended), but that’s where you should dig if you need that old save (or want the security of Flatpak while playing Minecraft).
I wonder if there are any file browsers that special case that directory and show an “app data” view. That sounds like a feature request someone must’ve opened by now.
Yeah well I don’t use flatpaks that much so I had no clue about it.
