ask again in a decade, we can't even use modern Qt5 on most platforms, either way MultiMC already builds fine on ARM, there's just no point as the game doesn't even support ARM

Please reopen this, Qt 5 is EOL.

[phit]

unlikely to ever happen for multimc 5, the qt5 versions used have already been out of support for years

[davidebeatrici]

Just for reference, I just realized PolyMC (a fork) already supports Qt 6. However, I'm going to share my work so far just in case someone else wants to step in and pick it up.
