I haven’t played Minecraft since 2015, but I get the feeling I might again in the new few years as I wanna find new hobbies. I know that game has changed a whole lot but I don’t have any official online data on it.

I’ve had this Microsoft account for over a decade and its probably full of personal information that I wanna let go of, I’ve already exported all my data. I would need to pay $30 for another copy of Minecraft, same price I paid in 2013. I just did a bunch of searching and its not possible to transfer my Minecraft license to another account.

      From what I remember:

      Owner locked all of the devs out of access to the project

      Some racism/homophobia

      And some other things i dont exactly remember rn, but because of this stuff the devs all left and forked into Prism so im not even sure is Poly is still being developed, and if it is id be sceptical on how safe it is to use given who owns it.

          So I think it goes multi -> poly -> prisim each forked due to some issue with the lead dev but I might be getting poly and prisim mixed up

            It’s sad that they didn’t keep the curseforge zip import thingy intact, you have to download the server files and stuff and it’s annoying… I don’t know if others did solve it but I wish there was an official support

          Oh i was talking about PolyMC, a MultiMC fork. From what i know MultiMC is fine but less polishes than Prism which is a fork of PolyMC.

            I only know about multimc. I still don’t know what’s the difference between these two since they look identical (logo/name excluded)
