What's the story behind this domain? I checked to see if maybe someone had made one for every Minecraft version, but no, 1.8.9 is singled out for some reason. Edit: Okay 1.7.10 also exists, I'm guessing some others do too. 1.6.4 doesn't, that was the first one I checked.
Well, the game was stuck on 1.8 longer than any other version especially if you also consider all the servers that refused to switch for years because Mojang didn't do a especially good job with the new combat system!
I know 1.7.10, 1.8.9, and 1.12.2 exist. I'm not sure the story behind them, I just know they are common versions people like to play still. 1.8.9 for PvP and Hypixel and 1.12.2 for 2b2t. I'm not sure about 1.7.10 though.
