? This seems random but nice
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.

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
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).
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
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.
Your office sounds like a cool place
You’re literally called the Minecraft’s protagonist name. You ain’t fooling us. You’re just a kid trying to show how much they’ve “grown”
The +1/-1 rule of immature mockery tells us that you’re 13 years of age.
Here’s your youngest lemming award.

And still equally fascinated by it
Hey ya! Let me add this to the /c/Minecraft sidebar :)
Thank you :)
It’s not there?
It has been updated now :)
Missed opportunity with not calling it minecraft.world, though I imagine that has probably already been taken lol
It seems to be available actually. I suppose they could use it if they wanted but I’m not sure how much it costs.
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
Very true, I’m not sure how much it costs, could be extremely expensive.
Usually popular domain names are around $50+ a month. Hopefully by using .world they can keep it below $10 a month.
Also this would probably be breaking the EULA pretty hard if they were to buy it.
How so?
It’s a copyrighted name, so it would be copyright infringement.

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

grief alert would only become more moderator work. As it would just notify instead of really claiming anything and you would have to dig down to bedrock and build it up to secure a chunk or some of it.
deleted by creator
Those things are not allowed just to claim randomly and building nothing. It will get abandoned automatically. ( or manually from an admin
Assuming the claim plugin used on the server is GriefPrevention (the most common one), land claims by default get removed after a certain amount of time unless you have enough claim blocks (usually gained passively via active play on the server, and you need a lot of playtime going off the default config)
yeah that’s my preferred way to play. it feels more like a community that way as opposed to a neighborhood run by an HOA lol. buuuut it is a lot to moderate so I understand why claims would be good for a server with a large playerbase
I’ve been playing bedrock for a little while, but I’m new to servers. Is there a guide somewhere for claiming on bedrock?
Claiming is a Java mod, so it’s not possible in Vanilla Bedrock.
Seems to work, I went to chat, typed /createclaim or /claim …can’t remember which one, but it worked a treat. Playing on PS4, so vanilla as it comes.
Is there an open source option to Minecraft? Some of the latest decisions Microsoft has been taking with it have been quite anti-consumer.
Minetest.
Minetest running Mineclone2 specifically for meee
Edit: mineclone2
Yes there is, it’s called Mintest!
Minetest is an opensource voxel game engine. The minecraft-like game made with that engine is called Mineclone2.
There’s minetest, but don’t expect compatibility with Minecraft servers.
What decisions? Legit question, it’s been a while since I last played.
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
How does chst reporting work if Microsoft isnt running the server?
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.
That Chat Filter, EULA changes etc.

What is the average age on this instance? Maybe I was too old already when Minecraft came out, but I thought it was a game for 10 year olds.
Me and my army buddies all discovered the alpha version of Minecraft in 2011 while deployed in Afghanistan. One of our Intel guys brought it back on an external drive from R&R and we all installed it on our laptops. Soon, the entire camp was playing it when off shift, including old, crusty infantry platoon sergeants. It’s an ageless, timeless kind of game. Like someone else said, it’s like building stuff with Legos.
44 and I play with my 9 year old 🫡
Hi5! I’m 45 and I have played MC from the beginning, still play it more than any other game. Now my little kids play it with me and it’s their favorite too.
Well there’s room on our server! We’re friendly ;)
I’ll probably hop on when I’m feeling froggy
So around 27 🤣
I’m 40. Minecraft is so good. I play harbored games mostly like Elite Dangerous and a ton of RTS or FPS games. Minecraft is different but it’s magic.
There’s no age limit for enjoying things. I made that mistake once, and I realised afterwards that those enjoyable things make me feel alive.
I’m 50. But my kids of 9 and 10 are also on the server.
If it was a game for 10 years old, and it’s been 10 years from release, then we get 20 years olds :) Also its like Lego, anyone can enjoy it
You’re never too old to start enjoying things. It’s nice to escape from being an adult for a while and just have fun.
I see old people on the minecraft server but young ones too :) You are welcome ;)
Damn, I feel like a child, being 18 and all, so many 40+ people here haha
Really a missed opportunity to not run and promote a Minetest server (with Mineclone2 or similar).
🤡
LOL how did a clown emoji user get approved 🤣 that’s new
You are absolutely right. I don’t even have a microsoft account so good luck with playing minecraft…
So a Microsoft amount is free, yeah…?
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.

Oh I’d love to participate, but where do I get the time from? 😭
I will sell you time! It’s like not worth it though. I charge $65/hr

fyi, minecraft java edition (what this server is) and every single other version of minecraft are completely different games and they are not cross compatible.
i see that you’re a lemmy.world admin but i’m just making sure you know lmao
Nice. I’d kinda like to see games like Minecraft become more like the Fediverse, where you could walk between worlds hosted on different servers in-game
I’m pretty sure server connections themselves are mostly P2P so that would be difficult, might be doable though since there are plugins to allow hopping between multiple worlds on a single server but that’s very different than hopping between multiple servers.
Removed by mod
In fairness that task would likely fall on server hosters and server software maintainers as Microsoft and Mojang only provide the Authentication services and Game Jar file repository. They have little incentive to provide more than the bare minimum since their primary concern is updating and maintaining the game itself, servers are a secondary concern to them.
Like this rejected Minetest suggestion
I played minecraft with people on that other site, after they invited me to the 100somethingClub. And then some guy who told me he was high on cocaine kept greifing me for no reason.
the public server experience. If you don’t encounter someone high out of their gourds, you haven’t played enough.
That’s usually me lol. I don’t tend to be an asshole though griefing is annoying as hell
Isn’t the internet great?!
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.
If I could give an award to you I would lol
Yea they are so weird and annoying
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.
Then why do you prefer Lemmy over Reddit?
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.
Because it’s less addictive than Reddit.
For me it’s the ones complaining about how you spend your own money 🤡
Not necessarily, there is MineClone2… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5aHym2jUB1M
That’s cool and all, but nobody is gonna play that over Minecraft lol
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.
Yeah I don’t know who this “many people” are lol. Also nice projecting.
🤡
Been quite busy with work recently, hopefully I remember this server in a weeks time
