That subreddit is, and has been for some time, an utterly atrocious place. It’s filled with low-effort posts and junk memes and interesting discussion is impossible. It’s barely moderated. The median age is 10.
As a 13-year MC player who is totally obsessed with the game, I literally unsubbed from /r/minecraft some time ago and didn’t miss it.
Here’s hoping we get some critical mass on Lemmy or Kbin to build a MC community for an actual MC community. It’s badly needed.
I tried to use their app. Even with tinkering I could only view 4 posts on a page (compared to about 10 on RIF). Of those 4, 1 was an ad and another was a “promoted” post. So really, I could only see 2 of my subbed posts. It looked like Facebook.

So exactly the kind of sub the admins want. Mindless junk food to keep the masses endlessly scrolling.

There already are some minecraft communities:
https://feddit.de/search/q/minecraft/type/Communities/sort/TopAll/listing_type/All/community_id/0/creator_id/0/page/1
I remember they also actively removed good posts. I think they removed someone who made their own calculator for “self promotion” or something.
I remember multiple times people leaving that sub, some tried to make it on r/minecraft2 but it never quite took off.
I completely lost faith in that subreddit since this happened. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2MbnYO2Xyw
