Been playing this for the past week or so, and hanging out in their Discord. It's a free, open source project, and anyone can contribute (whether that's dev work, art, music, whatever). I started sending in some voxel artwork, and now I've got artist rank in their Discord :D :D
If you liked CubeWorld as it initially released a few years ago, check this out. #Veloren

What is happening in #HongKong is a travesty. #China is physically attacking people and working to undermine #privacy in order to quell their voices - and ultimately spy on the Internet in a worldwide financial and social hub.

@design_RG @LittleWytch Fedilab lite looks good as well. I will take a look at that too!
@LittleWytch I use tusky. It's pretty lightweight and from my experience more fluent to use than for ex. Fedilab.

While the world is moving away from dirty coal consumption, the German government has decided to stick to coal until 2038 AND allow for a new coal plant this summer.
