considering that the game is now owned by microsoft these votes just end up feeling kind of like a slap to the face, it’s like holding a thousand dollars in your hands and asking whether someone wants a piece of gum or a bouncy ball.
you can completely legally extract the textures from your minecraft install and use a program to convert them to be used in minetest :)
It’s just illegal to redistribute them.
There are also popular third party texture packs from minecraft that people have converted to be used in minetest, which are legal to redistribute so you can just download them and use as is :D

Random question in case I have free time, would it be legal to entirely reimpliment the Minecraft engine open source in a better programming language?
Then do something like opekjdk and just release alongside the official with QOL and performance improvements
