Specs:

Ryzen 5 3500u
12GB of RAM, 2GB dedicated to VRAM
And an SSD.

I'm getting about 15-25 fps with constant stuttering on default settings. Using the lowest settings and 4 chunks for my view distance, I'm getting 20-35fps. Looking at my resource usage, I'm seeing about 30% GPU usage and 20-60% CPU usage. I wasn't expecting an amazing gaming experience on this laptop, but it seems more than okay on much harder to run games. I'm getting much better performance on my old laptop with a 3rd gen i5 with integrated graphics and 8GB's of RAM, so I'm a little surprised my laptop struggles so much.

Does anyone have any recommendations on what to try to get Minecraft to playable?

Already made sure everything was updated.

The new launcher comes with a version of Java bundled and I can't quite figure out how to point it to using the version I have installed. Any idea how to do that?

On an older version of MacOS and on Linux, it ran just fine. Not buying a new laptop just to play Minecraft.

Accidentally double posted. My bad.

It's MacOS, so I can't update video drivers. I had Minecraft running fine on MacOS 13. How do I disable OpenGL?

I'd really love some help getting Minecraft working on my laptop. OS is up-to-date. Yes, I know it's a weird amalgamation of a machine that probably shouldn't function, but this has been my only issue with this setup. I've tried multiple versions of Minecraft and multiple launchers and I get the same error. Haven't touched the settings at all. Thank you so much for your help.
