The reason the technical Minecraft scene is dead is that no new players have the fricking time to go back and watch old videos.
The number of times that "technical Minecraft tricks" surface that are just the EXACT same concept that Gnembon or Sethbling or Etho showed off 10 years ago is ridiculous.

Every comment: "this is the premise of an 8 year old Gnembon video."
I'm glad that people are looking for cool new stuff in Minecraft. But in order to discover something new you have to learn the stuff that has already been discovered.
