Does anyone know of any interesting and unique #Minecraft “clones”, like #VintageStory or even #Terraria (which is a bit far removed from Minecraft, but I’d count it for this question)? I do know of #4DMiner and those two, but that’s about it.
Edit: To clarify, I mean games that are clearly inspired by Minecraft, and would be called clones of it by ignorant people, but which actually offer a unique experience of their own. Luanti sounds like it probably has some interesting cases of this, but MineClone itself is actually the opposite of what I’m looking for.

I know that Factorio started as a minecraft mod. But that completly stands it’s own ground. I would have never called it a clone thou
Starbound is fairly close to Terraria, but in space.
I’ve had a fair amount of #fun with Luanti (Minetest). It’s an open source game similar to Minecraft. The only downside is if you are expecting a nearly 1:1 recreation of Minecraft with the same features you’ll have to do a bit of modding.
That said the game has a really rich modding scene and from what I can recall the modding process was quite easy.
I’d second Luanti, but just clarify that these days it’s more of a game platform than a single game. It has a built in content management system to download games, mods and texture packs.
The games available to install via Luanti range from Mincraft clones like Mineclonia, to semi-clones like Voxellibre, to original blocky survival games like Exile, all the way to arcade style games Extra Ordinance and platformers like Glitch, where you’d swear they were built on a totally different engine.
Mods for Luanti games are also pretty great, everything from fully fledged train systems to airships and everything between.

Oh, Extra Ordinance isn’t exactly what I was looking for, but that looks really cool. I’ll have to give that a try eventually.
Sorry was too lazy to link everthing. Extra Ordinance was more an example of the fact that Luanti can do all kinds of stuff and it’s a single game.
These might be more to your taste:

Add the VoxeLibre (MineClone) plugin, and it’s a great alternative to Minecraft with most of the same feel.
And both the game and the plugin are free and open source.
that sounds super cool.
https://veloren.net/ - free and open source voxel based with RPG elements
Love veloren, but it’s worth mentioning this is a Cube World clone and not a minecraft clone
Oh, i didn’t know that, thanks for the clarification
Luanti maybe
Raft, maybe kinda?
There is Eco global survival, but i havent played it
There is also Forager which i think counts
Gelatine probably doesnt fit the requirements for a minecraft “clone”
