I decided to turn one of my older singleplayer worlds that I didn’t originally play on for long into my forever world. It was random seed, but I chose it because it had nice terrain.

Mostly it’s a solo adventure, but occasionally I’ll host it as a server and do a session or tour with a friend.

I never reset chunks, but I’m careful about the areas I explore to save space for new update content.

I don’t use vanilla-incompatible mods. When Mojang releases an update I want to be able to update my world without having to wait on mods to update to the new version. I’ve only created and added one datapack to delete my items and xp when I die.

I play on hard mode with no gamerule alterations.

I do impose a few rules on myself:

1. Item and xp loss on death.
2. No following tutorials or copying designs from the internet.
3. No utilizing mechanics that could be patched in the future, such as bedrock breaking or duplication glitches.

I’ve been playing on this world on and off for 5 years now. Its nice to be able to take a break for weeks or even months and still have everything exactly where I left off.
