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.

Oh man, I remember this from years ago when the only 1-up on Minecraft it had, was that I could run it at 60 FPS, infinite chunks in all directions, no extreme lag spikes while generating the map, and further view distance.

Zero mods back then, so I'm happy to see the mod support!

hope they improve upon it, the old (when the banning was implemented) version of minetest was horrible. I'll be trying it soon :)

Did they ever fix the game having a maximum map size of like 10.000 by 10.000? That limitation always seemed to put it at a disadvantage compared to Minecraft, for larger communities

They fixed that quite a while back. It is 60000x60000x60000

Too bad that luanti.org is note available...

[–] Dirk@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

Also luanti.net (which would be the most logical step to use that address because of the same TLD).

Why isn't something like this done prior to announcing the new name ...

Minetest doesn't have to turn into Roblox, we already have OpenBlox for that purpose

Edit: person below is now accusing me of promoting crypto
