There is also preliminary modpack support! It can only download mods and is very unstable at the moment. If you know Rust, consider contributing to the PR.

CurseForge launcher finally launched on Linux! And it only supports... WoW?
Since you're on Linux, I suggest my CLI mod manager Ferium. It can download and update mods from modrinth, curseforge, and GitHub releases. It's super fast and UI is pretty good. The major downside right now is that it can't download mod packs (tracking issue)

A guide to setting up a cloud server network
- What server software or framework to use. Ideally, if you dont need too much vanilla features (world generation, all mobs & items implemented, etc), I'd use something lightweight that is not based off of the vanilla server software. There are a few projects like this on github, including: https://github.com/Minestom/Minestom , https://github.com/feather-rs/feather , https://github.com/KryptonMC/Krypton , https://github.com/df-mc/dragonfly (bedrock). Which one you use will probably depend mostly on your preference. - You will need a way to store data separate from the servers. A database like postgres should work. There are a lot of different databases tho!

What would you rewrite in Rust?

But guys, if you had to choose?.....
There is the feather port of Minecraft server. Lacking a gui but the serve could easily reach parity with some community help

Handling minecraft-like worlds in a rusty way?
As far as your enum idea goes, I don't directly see a place for storing chunk data in an enum (in the way that you would with Some(T). But, totally OK to store your block types that way (as feather-rs does)

Feather: A Minecraft server implementation in Rust
The insight contributors chart is usually a good clue. It’s not perfect because it only shows the main branch configured in GitHub and some project haven’t merged to main in years.
Still, it’s good to see how many real contributors a project has, and how active they are over time.
