Notes while I'm watching:

  1. The "vibe" is different - in my head I translated this to "he likes the GUI more"
  2. Minetest has zero "story" / progression (so no Ender Dragon to gear up for & fight) - it's purely a sandbox experience.
  3. better performance, apparently runs on potato laptops pretty well
  4. Mods are built-in, and don't require tools like Forge or whatever to tweak a jar file ⬅️ THIS is cool!
  5. Customization via the Settings menu

The "built-in support for mods" caught my eye. That's pretty slick, and a headache with MC.

tl;dr - it runs on just about everything, and focuses on giving the player an easy-to-mod "sandbox" to play in.

All the mods are written with Lua and run in a sandbox afaik so it isn't really the same as Minecraft mods

Thanks for the tl;dr!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
