      Currently, the Launcher doesn't do anything when trying to open Minecraft. It worked earlier in the day but that evening it stopped working. Just bounces once in the Dock.

      I am on an older Mac/OS and am aware that it's no longer supported and cannot run MC1.18+. However, according to the Minecraft Help Center (help.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/articles/4420326353933-Minecraft-Java-Edition-Versions-and-MacOS-): "If you’re unable to update your Mac, you will still be able to play older versions of Minecraft (1.17.1 and earlier). However, you will not be able to play Java 1.18 and beyond. " I'd still like to play older versions. But can't if the Launcher is no longer supported.

      I'm attaching the launcher_log.
