Hey all — I'm the developer behind BentoBox, an open-source platform for island-style game modes (SkyBlock, OneBlock, AcidIsland, and a bunch of others). I've been maintaining it for years now as a passion project, and I'm interested where things stand with these game modes from the admin side.
A few questions I'd genuinely like your takes on:
For context, I do this entirely for fun - mine and hopefully the players! BentoBox and all its addons are free and open source, always have been. No premium tiers, no paywalled features. We just pushed BentoBox 3.12 and we've been keeping pace with every MC release. The whole addon ecosystem (BSkyBlock, AOneBlock, Boxed, CaveBlock, SkyGrid, challenges, warps, levels, etc.) gets maintained alongside it.
I'm not here to sell anything - there's nothing to sell. But I am here to listen. If there's something you wish your SkyBlock setup could do, or something that put you off island game modes entirely, I'd rather hear it from the people actually running servers than guess from download numbers. I'm also interested in new ideas - I recently did a totally underwater version called Poseidon, and a more free-form-stick-your-claim-anywhere-in-the-vanilla-world version called StrangerRealms.

Thanks for reading. Happy to answer any questions about the project too.

A few questions I'd genuinely like your takes on:
- Are you still running SkyBlock or OneBlock on your server? If you dropped it, what replaced it - or did your players just move on?
- What do your players actually ask for these days? Custom islands? Better progression systems? Integration with other plugins? Something totally different?
- If you looked at SkyBlock plugins recently, what made you choose what you chose? Curious what the deciding factors are when you're evaluating options.
