"Back when I started playing there was no community"
I'm sorry but that's just... false. Maybe you weren't aware of it, but even in the Beta there were already mods. I myself started playing in 1.0 and played until around 1.7 and basically all the playtime I have was playing on servers or modding the shit out of this game. (Back then you actually needed to do that manually, as mod launchers weren't a thing)

So I'm still a bit confused as to why you are frustrated, since noone is forcing you to play the new vanilla versions.

Sure, the Mojang team itself tried to make it more accessible, which is a very reasonable thing to do for any game really. I know there are many games, where a wiki is mandatory, buta game should explain itself, so I understand why they did that.

However (although I haven't really followed it) the community still seems to be pretty much the same as before to me. If anything the stuff they archieved is even bigger, than back then. Stuff like Distant Horizons or the Create Mod could simply nit have existed back then.

What I'm getting at is that you don't have to play vanilla and there are more possibilities than ever before (including lots and lots of modpacks and servers, which definitely do need an external wiki)

It was quite good, but it lost somewhere around the 2/3rd mark. I'm not normally a person who can read that much, so I'm not finishing any of those long WNs. And I'm not even sure, whether the story is actually even finished, yet. But I'm pretty sure it wasn't when I read it.

No, it's more of a classical magic thing (but luckily not Isekai either, although I love that genre if made well). I got it recommended by a friend, who reads lots of web novels.
And even though there is definitly a big focus on him learning and getting stronger, it's actually both pretty well paced and has unique characters and a bit of politics (but not much).

And it's actually the only WN, besides Chrysalis, which I've read a decent amount.

As a german the whole tip system in the US is both redicilous and hilarious to me.
We have tipping here, too (we literally call it "drinking money"). With the difference, that it's pretty much voluntary and if you don't have much money (e.g. as a student) noone will expect you to tip.
Having tips be part of the actual wage totally defeats the point of them...

Mother of Learning

It's a pretty cool Fantasy/Time-Loop webnovel, but it's a bit long..
I am at page 1500 of 2500 and I'm not a particularly fast reader.

Besser als andersrum

Hey, that's what I wanted to write!

It doesn't just have the basic explanations of things and documents literally everything, but it even has huge guides on how to do stuff.

When I recently looked, there were like 10 different examples of parallel world teleporting wands. All listed with their advantages and disadvantages.

You should probably learn how to read.

I've been using tree-style tabs since I've switched back to Firefox. It works really well and I've even disabled the tab-bar and am only using the side panel.

Looks, like I might be wrong. I thought I remembered it from this article

but, while it says, that your data will probably be sold, it seems like the second part I remembered came from somewhere else, so might not be reputable. Maybe I'll later do some more research, but it took me a while already to find this blogpost again, since it's been a while, since I've read it.

Yes. Even though this one wasn't a discord breach, it's bound to happen sooner or later. But your data is probably already being sold, even without a breach, as the founder of discord is known to (illigally iirc) sell customer data, before he even founded discord.
