Check out Minetest if you’re looking to switch. 100% open source Minecraft clone. Available on every major OS including Linux and BSD. Supports local single player and multiplayer servers, creative and survival modes, a thriving mod and addon community, written in C++ as opposed to Java. The only real things it doesn’t have are the trademarked Minecraft assets, like Creepers, Ender whatevers, the Nether, etc, only because they’re literally not allowed to have those.

How do they know if you’re drinking booze?

finally the excuse we need to make drm-stripping Minecraft more popular :>

There’s countless Minecraft clones, e.g. Mineteat and Terasology. This is why supporting Indie devs and Open Source games is important.

And yes, I know Mojang was once an Indie dev. Notch should never have sold his company.

Ridiculous. If I own a copy of the game, then it is mine to use as I wish, including the multiplayer features. They can’t just disable a feature of something you paid for when you want to connect to a private server. They are getting a lot of backlash, so they will probably rethink this, but if not I will choose to never play this game again.

Please tell me it’s fake…

Fuck glad I don’t play multiplayer

About the only thing we can really do about Microsoft is to stop using Windows/Office/Azure, stop buying computers that are preloaded with Windows/Office, stop buying and playing Xbox, etc

Stop directly giving money to any company that we cannot trust

If we don’t do these things, then Microsoft will continue to have the power to do things, and we’ll only have ourselves to blame

since y’all can’t read, here’s the whole offenses list:

• Imminent harm - Self-harm or suicide.
  • Someone is threatening to harm themselves in real life or talking about harming themselves in real life.
• Child sexual exploitation or abuse.
  • Someone is talking about or otherwise promoting indecent behavior involving children.
• Terrorism or violent extremism.
  • Someone is talking about, promoting, or threatening with acts of terrorism or violent extremism for political, religious, ideological, or other reasons.
• Hate speech.
  • Someone is attacking you or another player based on characteristics of their identity, like religion, race, or sexuality.
• Imminent harm - Threat to harm others.
  • Someone is threatening to harm you or someone else in real life.
• Non-consensual intimate imagery.
  • Someone is talking about, sharing, or otherwise promoting private and intimate images.
• Harassment or bullying.
  • Someone is shaming, attacking, or bullying you or someone else. This includes when someone is repeatedly trying to contact you or someone else without consent or posting private personal information about you or someone else without consent (“doxing”).
• Defamation, impersonation, false information.
  • Someone is damaging someone else’s reputation, pretending to be someone they’re not, or sharing false information with the aim to exploit or mislead others.
• Drugs or alcohol.
  • Someone is encouraging others to partake in illegal drug related activities or encouraging underage drinking.

see? nothing about profanity, and the drugs category isn’t nearly as widely applicable as sexy_peach makes it out to be. plus, you’re not banned from the game proper, you’re only banned from online play. you can still play your singleplayer worlds. and i know microsoft bad yadda yadda yadda but some people deserve to have their online privileges revoked. and the only people that are objecting to all this (that have read the announcement) are nazis and edgelords, precisely the kind of people that shouldn’t be playing online in the first place.

This makes me glad I have never played Minecraft.
