Apparently! It’s crazy.

It’s probably not an accurate number, but there’s an app that will give you an estimate of what your MC username is worth if sold. I recall mine being a lot because the name is 5 characters, nothing random, and contains no numbers.

Java version forever. My username is apparently worth like $5k because I’ve had it since Minecraft was $12.

It’s kind of evening out now. It was a fad for a lot of users that came over, but there’s now a good amount of westerners like myself that have stuck it out, are learning a lot, and making connections. I wasn’t a TT user myself and instead was simply trying to find a new way to connect with people and avoid the negativity that permeates western social media.

I’m learning Mandarin, so usually stuff like HelloChinese, or I’ll get on Rednote, and Lemmy.

Free = you’re the product. I’d rather continue to pay for Mullvad at $5 per month.
