Comments about Luanti (formerly Minetest) as an Alternative to Minecraft
Great performance and very easy to use in a local network.
Everyone likes Minetest but it is not compatible with Minecraft. I recently googled Minecraft web client and found mcraft fun which is also open source, worked insanely well in my case, and I wish there were more projects like this. Like compatible with Minecraft in any way: make some migrations tools or anything, please! But still a very interesting project with a large community though!
I like Minetest because it's open source
