New name chosen
git.minetest.land
external-link
Based on the small overall amount of votes here, a similarly small amount of votes on Matrix, the large amount of people who voted on Discord and the large margin by which the name VoxeLibre won the voting on Discord, as well as the heated discussion that followed the survey on private dev chats... The new name of this project will be # VoxeLibre

    yeah I wanted to try out minetest but the fact that every single mod that exists for it is in the aur pissed me off cause I dont want to parse through 50 mod names to find the binaries and base data

    Don’t really roll off the tongue does it?

      It does for me. It’s a portmanteau of voxel and libre wit the last l of the first word and first l of the 2nd word shared. If you don’t pause at the caps and just roll straight through. It rolls just fine and is rather clever.

        I think Libre in general is an awkward sound for me

          Why? Most people’s last names are more cumbersome.

            I’ve not heard it pronounced, but it seems some here are verbalizing it as lee-bruh. In my head it’s always been lee-bree which is just an awkward pair of syllables.

          Lee-bruh. I don’t really see a problem.

    Why did they want a new name?

      Might be to reduce risk of legal action by Microsoft (not that they’d have a legal leg to stand on, but that doesn’t seem to matter these days)
