Hello,

I don't like how many items/blocks were added to Minecraft. It removes what made Minecraft so special–its simplicity.

Are there any Luanti games that replicate that feeling? "Minetest Game" doesn't have any mobs, and has weird controls. VoxeLibre has too many items.

You could probably fix that with mods or... you know just not using the items i don't wanna use. :) I still wanted to ask here though maybe somebody uses exactly that. I did found an empty server that was running something, that looked a lot like Minecraft Alpha, but I couldn't find what game they have used.

Also, at least for something like this feels like hack more than anything. Maybe its not, i did not look inside the code. But just from outside I would assume that would break with every GIMP release and even if not it would never feel "right".

I was wondering that too. Its actually a thunder storm. The worst thing is that it also spawns a lot of skeletons :/. I feel like it is happening alot, it might be related to the biome. Thanks for checking it out though. :)

Saw people on here calling the mbin, lemmy, piefed part of fediverse "threadiverse" so i have adopted it.

Also saw nodeBB but I didn't really like the style of it. And I believe that we already have the backend set with lemmy, its just a matter of how the data is being presented. 🤔

Have the same feeling, I actually thought about making an alternative threadiverse client in the style of phpBB. But I believe there should still be an option to display comments like threads, it is just easier to use I believe. Default should definitely be new though for comments and posts. Its surprising how well threadiverse would be compatible with message boards.

Which also brought up the question with the fediverse being so open how different people interact with it using different clients.

Awesome :) In that case it might be helpful to look for a tutorial, I believe i saw one included in VoxeLibre. When you write /help in chat you see a list of commands I believe one of them opens up a wiki of sorts with some "getting started" chat.

Unfortunately the spawn is not really beginner friendly I believe, maybe I should have gone with basic plain fields. There are some not too far off the spawn in the direction of the safe house. Maybe we can also set up a camp there :)

Thank you for checking it out! :) No stress though, i know how it is with the crafting urge. Server wont be gone any time soon and ill be on there on and off as well.

Just played on there myself.

Didn't know the cold taiga was so hard to play in. Especially with a snow storm going on. The constant thunder strikes created a bunch of skeletons, skeleton horses and special skeletons with ice arrows. Soon the whole forrest was riddled with them.

I did manage to create a safe house though. There is also a bed inside for anyone joining so you can sleep through the night:

After the snow storm was over I was also able to bring in some cows and sheep they reside now behind the safe house. Please make sure theres enough cows! If you are hungry you can also go fish in the frozen lake, i put a fishing rod in the chest inside the safe house.

Hello dear Fediverse,

I have created a Luanti server for you all.
It runs the VoxeLibre game in its base form.
So it is heavily inspired by Minecraft.

PVP is enabled, rules are not existent. (Except for in the chat. Just please be nice, its just a game!)
It doesn't announce itself to the server list, so welcome to the exclusive club :)

The IP-Adress is: 91.99.227.182:30000

Join and have fun :) You can get Luanti for free here .

The server is currently the cheapest VPS you can get from Hetzner residing in Frankfurt/Germany.
I honestly have no clue how much it can handle so please be kind to the server and share this post with care.
I might upgrade if needed.

PS: Could be cool to join with your fedi username, but as i said "rules are not existent".
FYI: I did join before and gave me fly, debug and teleport rights to look for a cold taiga biome as its the season. ⛄

Tips for players coming from Minecraft:

  • Default controls are a bit off (like running on E and inventory I) you can set them in the settings.
  • To show your position press F5 or /whereami 1 in the chat.
  • /tell <name> <msg> for dm. (I could technically be able to read them, so no talking behind my back!)

For now the server will shut down on 12/27/2025 12:59 PM and the world being archived, but if this is actually being used i might reconsider.

PPS: This is no gaming news, but I asked @PerfectDark@lemmy.world and they told me that it is okey to post. Just keep in mind that, for all the chaos on the server that might or might not ensue, I am to blame. :)

Ich stimmen dem Artikel zu, bin aber auch der Meinung das Organisationen wie zum Beispiel AlgorithmWatch eine "Freikarte" bekommen, da sie Menschen dafür sensibilisieren möchten und das macht recht wenig Sinn im Fediverse.

Schreibe das nur weil ich bereits Kommentare gelesen habe, die solchen Organisation heuchlerei vorgeworfen haben.

Sorry, I forgot to add the /s.

But thank you for the calculations, it's actually interesting :) I was thinking about that myself, but didn't bother to do the math.

I thought its reminiscent of cryptomining as it also consist of guessing an arbitrary number just for fun.

is this cryptomining? /s

Signal, i know its now perfect, but its easy to get normal folks over there. I'm just happy I don't have to use WhatsApp anymore.
