Any people who have played open-source Minecraft alternatives? (reddthat.com)

I've tried to do research and found games that exist, but not many opinions on them. I don't wanna rely on one singular opinion just to find out that the game is for them but not me. Classicube ie too simple. Cubys is like Minecraft's Arch, and Luanti with Mineclonia seems the most promising, but have done the least research from. Eaglercraft isn't fully open-source liscense-wize, Android java launchers like Mojo use too many resources, and PC launchers require a Minecraft install and a Microsoft account. I don't wanna just straight up pirate the game directly either. How are your experiences woth those complete alternatives?

Voxelibre, a luanti fork, is pretty great. My young lad plays it almost exclusively. It also runs on a potato which is great

To ensure no misunderstandings here, Voxelibre is running on Luanti as a 'game'. It's not a separate fork. It will be forked from the 'Minetest Game' which is the default (basic, unmodded) engine on Luanti.

The Luanti title screen gets substituted by the title screen of whatever game was selected/played before Luanti was closed. It makes Luanti itself like a 'console'.
