My daughter (5) uses WASD proficiently, so I have hope.
Absolutely. At 10yo I've tried my best to teach my kid video editing and basic computer use. A bit ago I made her network two computers using chatGPT as a guide. So freaking proud of her.
Thinking of forcing her to do something new. Does Roblox run on Linux?
Can I recommend Minecraft over Roblox?
Minecraft isn't as popular, but I was able to get my 8 year old to make TNT arrows and he thought it was a blast. (Hehehehe)
And Minecraft Java definitely works on Linux
Edit: My son claims Roblox is more popular. But that could be because I banned it at home.
with some hassle bedrock can also work iirc. might be the android version though.
That said, I forget which one is which and which was the renaming, but luanti/minetest/minecraftia/mineclone. One is a free open source engine, two are different takes on minecraft clones that are mods for the base engine. Missing features can be covered via addititonal more specific mods.
The main benefit is that its actually free with no microtransactions that can make you broke if your kids figure out how to use your credit card. It also performs way better than both minecraft versions on even older hardware. If the kids can learn free art software like krita or gimp among others, they can make their own skins instead of buying them for minecraft. Pixel art is pretty easy to copy too.
