VoxeLibre has intended to not be Minecraft clone for a long time now. There has been burgers in the base game for 17 months now. Unfortunately, every time someone tries to do something different, they get a hostile reception. The name is a liability, and not representative of what the project plans to be. The name change is about where the game plans to be, not where it was in the past. MineClone2 is a dreadful name. It’s like calling it rubbish MC rip-off 2.

I’ve said goodbye to the MineCraft I once knew, if we want something better, we make it, improve it and share it! :)

I think the other response was quite accurate. Different language and architecture makes it harder. There are mods made for minetest that can work with MineClone2, so there may be some stuff you’ll enjoy, but usually they have to specify it’s available for MineClone2. Here is a page if you want to have a look: https://content.minetest.net/packages/Wuzzy/mineclone2/hub/

Minetest modding is actually quite nice to do from what I’ve heard.

Who said anything about less important?

We’re all busy, and we use our time how we choose. They choose to use it in this way and I thanked them. Maybe consider how you spend your time. Arguing on the internet gives you very little.

Apologies if I came across as rude, but there has been several posters that are “interested” but couldn’t live without Auto or payment. It’s like of all the millions of features phones have, and the majority of dissenters here need the exact combination that GrapheneOS doesn’t support. I find that really odd. If you are one of the few that needs that, point taken and maybe it isn’t for you, but until today I hadn’t heard of Auto’s and now it’s critical and something that cannot be lived without.

When I got a degoogled phone, I’d already decided I do not trust Google with my data and I want to be far away from them. With that decision came the decision that I don’t consider them an authority I rely on, and don’t want their opinion on what is good and what isn’t. If people aren’t ready to degoogle, that is fine, but to ask google if it’s cool to degoogle is a an area where maybe folk aren’t ready to degoogle.

You are such a nerd…

… and so wonderful! Thanks for looking over source code so busy folk like me don’t have to! :)

The two main features that aren’t biggies and GrapheneOS doesn’t support and they’re the deal breakers? Yeah, right…

Works on hands free for calls but not with Android auto.

I’m using a 6a and it works great. Mileage may vary if you get under contract as these companies sometimes mess around with the boot locking stuff etc.

I got the 6a over half a year ago for £299 brand new. So about $350 dollars, I’m guessing. Best to get the older models when newer ones are out or just about to come out. 6a is really great.

Hi google, can you approve our phone that basically cuts your apps out and offers privacy from your mass spying operation please? Such a weird point.

In the UK we have tap to pay debit cards. Mixing that in with the phone is always weird, especially from a privacy perspective. I wouldn’t want that.

Face unlock and fingerprint unlock are the biometric stuff I avoid when I get a phone to improve my privacy. I’ve not had issues with download speeds.

What is android auto?

Edit: auto = some car integration. Hands free works OOTB for me on GrapheneOS. Not needed anything more.

Seems to be a little bit of an effort to discredit OS projects or products used for it. I’ve seen it for GrapheneOS, Pixel, Firefox, GIMP.

Not had issues with Signal, but yeah, wouldn’t touch Telegram with a barge pole. Probably a CIA honeypot.

You mean following a legal order that any company would have to do?

You were wrong. I had no idea!

This is game changing!

I think the awareness is the main thing. I don’t like and use those platforms like Twitter, or Mastodon. I assumed it was private like Reddit. Many would also.

Except if you live in Saudi and you voted in support of gay rights. Or HK and voted something negative of China, or if you were a republican and voted something supportive of trans. Voting behaviour can be published to bring detriment to their users.

In the UK, the Labour party suspended members who voted for content from other parties (such as that they had recovered from covid) etc or for voting for content from groups that were proscribed later and they were excluded from the party for this sort of stuff. They had previously hired someone who previously worked for a company linked to the Israeli state and potentially Mossad and they were using this knowledge to crack down on left wingers with in the party.

What people upvote is increasingly being highlighted and used as discreditation by association.

As the world becomes more digitalised, and this is used more and more, it becomes more and more critical. Maybe not for you personally, but for many.
