Just spreading awareness about whatever the fuck Mojang thinks they’re doing. Given their enforcement of the EULA, or the lack thereof, this probably isn’t going to have as huge of an impact, but I think it’s still something worth talking about.

Here’s an article on dotesports.com if you don’t want to visit Twitter.

The Minecraft EULA itself as of 2nd August. I’ve got the attention span of a rat on cocaine, so if someone could check if Rock solid’s points are an accurate summary of the EULA, I’d appreciate that.

    If you’re a steamer or youtuber, you have to make your videos free to watch as well.

    All videos (in their entirety) are free to view (for example there is no pay wall or other charge to view the videos)

      I don’t know of anyone charging to watch MC videos. Maybe as Patreon bonuses?

        I don’t remember anyone specific of the top of my head, but as well as Patreon, YouTube subscriptions also can have exclusive content, afaik.

        I know a YT channel that does MC videos, and has a few members only bonus videos on the side. I guess these are no longer allowed now.

        Does that even apply? Youtube videos are already free to watch regardless of whether you have patreon or not (barring people with ‘patron exclusives’)
