Show visible versions on modpack downloader #5131

Description

Role

I play Minecraft Modpacks

Suggestion

I suggest MultiMC to list versions by their visible names, not internal names

Benefit

Because visible names are more flexible for modpack developers

This suggestion is unique

  • I have searched the issue tracker and did not find an issue describing my suggestion, especially not one that has been rejected.

You may use the editor below to elaborate further.

For example, my modpack's versions use basic semver - x.x.x, while the visible version is x.x.x for y.y.y (where the visible version's y.y.y indicates the Minecraft version).

Similarly, some versions may have other constraints or differences that cannot or were not conveyed initially in the semver variant, as that can usually not be changed later (except Modrinth, but even then it'd break anything that depends on it), while the visible version can be changed easily.
