Awaited menu redesign and Minetest will be perfect.
It’s gradually getting there. The settings redesign was introduced a few versions ago, and the online content menu redesign will hopefully land in the next version (and potentially replace the current content tab after that). I agree that the main menu redesign might be a while away though.
You might be waiting for a few decades. I don’t think UI design is what foss is known for (outside of gnome)
What would be cool is of they could make Minetest support third party launchers.
Third party launchers are the LAST thing we need, and would provide no benefit that the game itself doesn’t already provide.
Minecraft needs launchers because of the lack of built-in mod support and the fact that its closed source. Minetest is the opposite of these things.
I mean for the UI. I want to be able to make a libadwaita app that works like the current UI. It should create a space the engine can render in.
Not really. A few of their developers have been redeveloping the menus. They redesigned the settings menu and it looks great. They’re redesigning the content db pages and home pages. Some designs have been put out and I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw something in the next few versions.
Edit: Changes are pretty close now:
You might be waiting for a few decades.
UI redesign should be coming in 5.10.

? There’s many more DEs (and not only) with beautiful design. Gnome is not something incredible here. And I can even argue about libadwaita being beautiful.

Why would you need that? What benefits outside of using other UI framework like GTK it can provide?
If there is one think gnome has going for it is careful UI design. They spend years perfecting something.
