I love minecraft so much, that I wonder if this is the right avenue to take for the future. (Maybe its a fun project for them, I'm not criticizing the authors) If you code a replica, can you get sued from M$? I feel like I've seen similar happen to Nintendo replicas.
I'm so afraid of M$ and what they will do to Minecraft. I have seen the open source variants that give me some uncanny valley feelings, but I imagine this is the long term solution.
In a different life or when we achieve post scarcity, I'd love to contribute to one of these.

- koil 3y agoThe author of the client just likes writing it. The owner of the website just likes running it too. Both have decent day jobs that cover the costs easily, so that’s nice. I know the website owner has actually talked mojang’s legal team down from trying to take classicube down- the lack of modern Minecraft features essentially differentiates it from their product, assumedly it makes it much harder to sue for.
