? This seems random but nice
Show threadRookiSep 22, 2023

We wanted to make something like this for a long time ;) Just lately we had time for it.

As you will probably see and guess it is aiming for a relaxed environment and less pvp focused.

Show threadSteeveSep 22, 2023
Just in case you were wondering what the average age on Lemmy was lol
Show threadWalkableProgrammerSep 22, 2023
Bro minecraft isn’t for the young anymore. My office has a self-hosted server, lol. Not my thing, but I accept that playing minecraft makes people relaxed and happy
Show threadObiniceSep 22, 2023

Was it ever? I mean, they really pushed for it to be something little kids got into over the past 8 years or so, but when it came out everyone playing the alpha and beta etc for a few years there were us people around 18 :-D

Everyone I know has played a good amount of Minecraft in the past, though to be honest not in recent years (so maybe the player base is more little kids now than it used to be on average? I have no idea).

Show threadRetrogradeSep 22, 2023
Minecraft is like virtual Lego. It’s fun for everybody of all ages but it’s always going to be particularly popular with the youngins
Show threadFauxPseudo Sep 23, 2023
I started playing in my late 30s when it was relatively new. Friend at work was playing it and showed me a video of somebody who built a computer in game. I was in.
Show threadatocciSep 23, 2023
Your office sounds like a cool place
Show threadDrQuintSep 23, 2023

You’re literally called the Minecraft’s protagonist.

The +1/-1 rules tells us that you’re 13 years of age.

Close, but my username is from a different game
Show threadnucleativeSep 22, 2023
Cool, I needed a good reason to open Minecraft again
Show threadJackGreenEarthSep 22, 2023
Is there an open source option to Minecraft? Some of the latest decisions Microsoft has been taking with it have been quite anti-consumer.
Show threadDrMoreauSep 22, 2023
Minetest.
Show thread𝒍𝒆𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒏Sep 22, 2023
Minetest running Mineclone specifically for meee
Show threadwildbus8979Sep 22, 2023
Yes there is, it’s called Mintest!
Show threadflubba86Sep 22, 2023
Minetest is an opensource voxel game engine. The minecraft-like game made with that engine is called Mineclone2.
Show threadArkarianSep 22, 2023
What decisions? Legit question, it’s been a while since I last played.
Show threadRookiSep 22, 2023
That Chat Filter, EULA changes etc.
Show threadJackGreenEarthSep 22, 2023
Forcing migration to Microsoft account and the deleting Mojang accounts, forcing chat reporting in all servers along Mojang’s rules, even servers not hosted by Mojang, banning ‘mature’ themed servers - and more
Show threadspasm01Sep 22, 2023
How does chst reporting work if Microsoft isnt running the server?
Show threadJustARegularNerdSep 23, 2023
It’s done both on the server and client side, using signatures and block chain, something like that. There’s videos you’ll find online that explain it much better than my 2c would, and I’d imagine wiki.vg would have it documented in detail if it’s still maintained.
Show thread520Sep 22, 2023
There's minetest, but don't expect compatibility with Minecraft servers.
Show threadfuggadihereSep 22, 2023

Microsoft has mostly contributed to the majority of enshitifications in Minecraft.

So many stories to tell… :/

Show threadAureumTempusSep 22, 2023
Can’t believe that I was 7 y/o when the game was launched, and now I’m in my early 20s.
Show threadMysteriousSophon21Sep 22, 2023
And still equally fascinated
Show threadneco arcSep 22, 2023
Been quite busy with work recently, hopefully I remember this server in a weeks time
Show threadpoVoqSep 22, 2023
Really a missed opportunity to not run and promote a Minetest server (with Mineclone2 or similar).
Show threadPropaGandalfSep 22, 2023
You are absolutely right. I don’t even have a microsoft account so good luck with playing minecraft…
Show threadcalhoon2005Sep 23, 2023
So a Microsoft amount is free, yeah…?
Show threadPropaGandalfSep 23, 2023
Yeah I’d better not pay with my data. No seriously, why do I need to have a microsoft account to join a random server? I prefer Minetest’s approach where you have a separate login per server. Yes it may be a bit more arduous but in the end I dont play on more than 4 servers max.

LOL how did a clown emoji user get approved 🤣 that’s new

Oh that’s pretty nice.
Show threadAlmightySnoo 🐢🇮🇱🇺🇦Sep 22, 2023
Now we just need a Veloren server.
Show threadPropaGandalfSep 22, 2023
Or a Minetest server.

Oh my god. We did it!

How many times do we have to go over this?

That’s Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie to you!

And Antiks Ban Hammer
Show threadspirinolasSep 22, 2023
Do we meed a Mojang account?
Show threadMicromotSep 22, 2023
Isn’t microsoft and mojang merged now?
Show threadchrishazfunSep 22, 2023
Missed oppotunity with not calling it minecraft.world, though I imagine that has probably already been taken lol
Show threadDraconic NEOSep 23, 2023
It seems to be available actually. I suppose they could use it if they wanted but I’m not sure how much it costs.
Show thread𝒍𝒆𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒏Sep 23, 2023
I think the lemmy.world mods would rather keep their arms and legs, instead of using them to pay for a premium minecraft domain lol
Show threadDraconic NEOSep 23, 2023
Very true, I’m not sure how much it costs, could be extremely expensive.
Show threadInterstellar_1Sep 23, 2023
Also this would probably be breaking the EULA pretty hard if they were to buy it.
Show threadDraconic NEOSep 24, 2023
How so?
Show threadInterstellar_1Sep 24, 2023
It’s a copyrighted name, so it would be copyright infringement.
Show threadDraconic NEOSep 24, 2023

Still a good point, might be an issue to use that domain.

Show threadnameliviaSep 22, 2023
Appreciate it, but why not Minetest? It is open source and more customizable than Minecraft.
Show thread👁️👄👁️Sep 22, 2023
It’s a completely different game lol. It’s like announcing a chess tournament and saying why not minesweeper.
Show threadClarkDoomSep 22, 2023
I swear the most annoying part of lemmy are the people who think all open source options are better than all closed source.
Show threadKerandirSep 22, 2023
If I could give an award to you I would lol
Show thread𝒍𝒆𝒎𝒂𝒏𝒏Sep 23, 2023
For me it’s the ones complaining about how you spend your own money 🤡
Show threadnitefoxSep 23, 2023
Yea they are so weird and annoying
Show threadnameliviaSep 24, 2023
Then why do you prefer Lemmy over Reddit?
Show threadTheSpookiestUserSep 25, 2023

Because it’s not Reddit, and is active enough.

In terms of content Lemmy is definitely inferior to Reddit. So it is, it’s not very old and not very large compared to Reddit. But because of Reddit’s decisions, I’m here instead of there.

Show threadJohnDClaySep 26, 2023
Because it’s less addictive than Reddit.
Show threadkavaSep 25, 2023

I think you should make an effort to use open source whenever possible, even if it’s the inferior option. I don’t believe this out of any ethical or moral obligation - it’s purely selfish reasons. Any proprietary code that runs on your hardware is something you don’t control. For example, we really have no idea what kind of telemetry Microsoft put into Minecraft.

You are essentially taking your hardware - something you physically own and belongs to you - and turning it into a mechanism for advancing the interests of a megacorporation. Me personally, I prefer my hardware to benefit me and me alone. I don’t want it sending data home to Microsoft so they can feed their AI models at my cost.

The more proprietary software you run, the less and less you actually own your computer.
