I've tried to do research and found games that exist, but not many opinions on them. I don't wanna rely on one singular opinion just to find out that the game is for them but not me. Classicube ie too simple. Cubys is like Minecraft's Arch, and Luanti with Mineclonia seems the most promising, but have done the least research from. Eaglercraft isn't fully open-source liscense-wize, Android java launchers like Mojo use too many resources, and PC launchers require a Minecraft install and a Microsoft account. I don't wanna just straight up pirate the game directly either. How are your experiences woth those complete alternatives?

https://ultimmc.com/ FOSS Minecraft launcher. You can play singleplayer and multiplayer on cracked servers

Is it servers as in creating a file, or online servers?

[-] goldstein@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 days ago

Some online servers support cracked launchers. Just search for "Minecraft server cracked list" on your browser and you will find them. If you want to host one for you and your friends you can use Docker Compose https://setupmc.com/java-server/ just make sure to untick online mode.

I don't, that's why I'm asking. Solo offline for me.

I use a cracked polymc launcher. You have to create an offline account and download a jdk but it does what I need. Can even download mods for me.
