From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

From someone out of the loop, what is Minetest?
Voxel engine with lots of different games
I was gonna ask for a link but the post itself is the link. Gonna try it now. Minecraft-like? So does it have all Minecraft basic stuff? Day/night, basic mods, tools, etc? I mean, can you do what Minecraft 1.7.10 can do (more or less)?
Sort of. It is more DIY than Minecraft (focus on mods and games)
Some games try to be a Minecraft clone but you don't have to use them.
I done know if it has everything you need but in minetest ui you can find a game called mineclonia, it tries to be similar to minecraft.
