To make PolyMC safe, do the following:
polymc.cfg file next to the PolyMc executable (%appdata%\polymc\polymc.cfg on Windows); find the line which says AutoUpdate=true and change it to AutoUpdate=false.https://meta.prismlauncher.org/v1/:
c36a9fb6-4f2a-41ff-90bd-ae7cc92031eb:
AUR is under control and also removed
@Zexxx still good practice
There is now an offical metadata server https://meta.scrumplex.rocks/v1/ github here
Hopefully someone with more than one brain cell to rub together and make sparks can fork the project and keep it going, since MultiMC still isn't able to install modpacks from forge.
Don't understand why idiots gotta shit where they eat all the time. polymc is likely dead now, and I really liked it and the community until this idiocy started.
Just had to post to several minecraft community servers how to do this in a "I can turn the power on" level of language and offer up to create a video or something later for this shit. Wasting my time because they don't like other's political or social views... can't just write code and be happy that their brainchild is out there doing its' thing. Seems like politics gets everywhere without any escape.
thank you earthcomputer!
@Sakata-MC the banned maintainers made a fork PlaceholderMC/PlaceholderMC
yes
You may wish to remove PolyMC from accounts.live.com/consent/Manage (where you gave it perms to use your xbox account for things) If you aren't uninstalling, that will probably break online play from the launcher.

I think the link is actually https://account.live.com/consent/Manage/
Even with this it still makes queries for polymc.org and i18n.polymc.org, might be best to blackhole if you run a local resolver, or simply by putting it into your /etc/hosts...
No need to do that.

It's just for the news

I think PolyMC got yeeted from my registered apps by itself, cuz I can't see it on that page, while things like IAS and MultiMC still show
lenny changed the cmake msa client id
PolyMC is safe, the guy just dislikes troons
lenny changed the cmake msa client id
Does it mean it gotunregistered automatically

The infrastructure is potentially compromised because one of the maintainers went loco and changed the microsoft client id. Better to be safe than sorry with these matters. I hear he's also trying to distribute Discord Token Grabbers.
Whatever's going on, it's probably some bored edgelord 12 year old on the powertrip of his lifetime
Are Appimage users safe? They don't auto update it right :/? I opened many times trying to update some of my mods and didn't know this was going on.
I've updated the gist to include the new meta server, which means there should now be no need to change the user agent.

Prism Launcher released something y'all can use otherwise you should be fine. if you disabled the auto updating in macos. Not sure how to but ik its a thing.
AppImage is for Linux not MacOS tho

You do realise that "troon" is a slur, correct? and that "just" disliking trans people has been used as an excuse for violence and other horrible shit?
"I'm not racist, I just dislike black people"
ugh-unsubbed, topic derailed and turned into an idiotic political crapfest. Shit's done anyways, time to go home. Take your bigotry and idiocy home with ya, and leave it there and stop smearing it around the internet.
can i ask what happened to polymc?
it has malware or something?

Nope he just kicked everyone. Becouse bullshit politics reasons.
