    Appreciate it, but why not Minetest? It is open source and more customizable than Minecraft.

      It’s a completely different game lol. It’s like announcing a chess tournament and saying why not minesweeper.

        I swear the most annoying part of lemmy are the people who think all open source options are better than all closed source.

            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.

          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.

            You’re on Lemmy here. There is many people who actually care about privacy and telemetry doesn’t sit well with them. Many have been put off by the recent direction.

              We’re talking about video games here. Nobody is going to take you seriously when you are going to try and convince people that game is the foss Minecraft killer. Good job downvoting me on a week old post though.

                I’m not trying to convince folk at all. I’m stating a fact that many prefer it because of it being FOSS. I don’t think anyone could ever persuade you of anything. Btw, Karma doesn’t exist here. That and your toxic attitude are better found on reddit.

                    Multiplayer servers have between 20-40 on it most days. So usually can find people to play with. Quite a number enjoy the game. Obviously not on the level of MC. They’re a lot bigger with far more resources, but it’s a pretty solid game. It’s always special when people give up their free time to make the world better rather than tear things down ;).
