    Notes while I’m watching:

    1. The “vibe” is different - in my head I translated this to “he likes the GUI more”
    2. Minetest has zero “story” / progression (so no Ender Dragon to gear up for & fight) - it’s purely a sandbox experience.
    3. better performance, apparently runs on potato laptops pretty well
    4. Mods are built-in, and don’t require tools like Forge or whatever to tweak a jar file ⬅️ THIS is cool!
    5. Customization via the Settings menu

    The “built-in support for mods” caught my eye. That’s pretty slick, and a headache with MC.

    tl;dr - it runs on just about everything, and focuses on giving the player an easy-to-mod “sandbox” to play in.

      All the mods are written with Lua and run in a sandbox afaik so it isn’t really the same as Minecraft mods
