It really saddens me that their post was removed from r/Minecraft, for crediting a server by including its IP address for literally one second in the video.
At least one can find niche communities with healthy discussion/debate as primary interest.
Soon to be official policy based on their statements at the moderator convention:
"I want our users, user-users and moderator users, to make money on reddit. Specifically, I want them to make money from other users. And so we need to have business models where users are paying money to other users or to subreddits. I would like subreddits to have the ability to be businesses. We have a lot of subreddits that are kind of trying to do this, but the platform just doesn't support it."
It's especially weird becuase in the last year or two reddit has cranked their capricious and opaque moderation up to 11-- it would be suicidal to base your livelihood on that platform where you could be shut off at an instant and without recourse just due to a false report campaign from a competitor, troll, or extortionist.
Comment from one of the creators;
This build does NOT run in real time. It runs on MCHPRS, the server developed by StackDoubleFlow, which speeds up the game roughly 10-20,000x while running redstone. That brings the framerate to a much more reasonable 0.1fps, so the long timelapses in the video only took 9 hours to record in in total.
