Hilarious site but a little unjustified. Out of those, only Valence is a real "this already exists" argument. There's 7 total and the first 3 are dead and the latest 3 (incl pumpkin) are all 2024. And all of the 2024 ones explicitly differentiate themselves from Valence which is more of a framework that focuses on modularity. These latest 3 all look like healthy competitors that are all amicable towards each other

It's pretty funny how many of these are "Is it a Minecraft server? No. It's a framework with which you can build your own rewrite of Minecraft server."

Pumpkin is already on that list.

This got me thinking - is Rust really the right tool for the job? And I thought, Elixir/Erlang feels like the perfect tool. Sure enough, someone did it! Great reference material for someone learning how to do things on the beam https://github.com/thecodeboss/minecraft

I was thinking it would be cool to have a Minecraft server built with Bevy, but that has also already been done: https://github.com/valence-rs/valence
