And yet nobody complained about this 10 years ago when Minecraft was all the rage?

None of the issues raised in the video seem to apply to Minecraft.

Minecraft doesn't have an in-game currency, and mod developers don't have any kind of marketplace relationship with Mojang.

Minecraft has never had an (official) marketplace.

E: I'm wrong, apparently the spin-off versions of Minecraft have them. Java Minecraft (the original) never did.

I haven’t yet watched the video, but Minecraft definitely has an official marketplace and in game currency. It is for the pocket edition/bedrock edition

I’ve bought numerous skins and game mods for myself and the kids to enjoy.

From what little I understand this is quite different from the Java edition, but I don’t really know.

Ah, that would be why. My mistake - I've never played anything but the Java version.
