After more than a year of public and internal discussions, that era is over. “Minetest” is no more; the “Minecraft clone” is no more. With great thanks to the community for their input, we wave goodbye to Minetest and introduce a new era. Welcome 🥁 … Luanti!

Any block game is the minecraft clone.
Don't you mean infiniminer clone?
This is a very early test of an Infiniminer clone I'm working on. It will have more resource management and materials, if I ever get around to finishing it.

I guess they are infiniminer clones then :)
Minetest sounded like a cheap minecraft clone
Luanti sounds like an audio mixer
"Minetest" was a clunky name. Wish they'd have changed the name sooner.
Oh, I like the new name!
