I'll never understand why certain people don't like this message. I use Discord every day, and have been for years, but I still hate it. Other than the fact they collect so much data and does god knows what with it, I despise the fact that SO many communities rely on it for things like support, instead of using publicly accessible websites and forums. I don't want to go through my list of servers to find one to leave so I can join yours just to find the answer to a simple question, or to be involved in the decision making process.

It's a double edged sword. The channels are bridged across to Matrix, and the poll ran in multiple places, but 90%+ of the player community are on Discord.

oh I rhpught that was the case! yea definetly it would make way more sense for minetest to become voxel libre

VoxeLibre has intended to not be Minecraft clone for a long time now. There has been burgers in the base game for 17 months now. Unfortunately, every time someone tries to do something different, they get a hostile reception. The name is a liability, and not representative of what the project plans to be. The name change is about where the game plans to be, not where it was in the past. MineClone2 is a dreadful name. It's like calling it rubbish MC rip-off 2.

Im fine with the name change here, but also agree that MineTest is a bit of a lame name for what is pretty much a game engine.
