It’s more than that, it’s a whole engine and launcher combo for (mostly) voxel games, most of which again are Minecraft like, but some are very different. It’s made some huge leaps recently, graphics wise and functionality wise. The promise of the engine is also being fulfilled with more original game projects being developed for it.
Sort of, yes. In it’s earliest stages it was just an attempt at a FOSS.Minecraft like game, but it evolved into the engine/platform it is over the past few years. Minetest uses LUA as a.scripting language, which I believe Roblox also uses.
I was gonna ask for a link but the post itself is the link. Gonna try it now.
Minecraft-like? So does it have all Minecraft basic stuff? Day/night, basic mods, tools, etc? I mean, can you do what Minecraft 1.7.10 can do (more or less)?
From someone out of the loop, what is Minetest?
Open source Minecraft

Sort of. It is more DIY than Minecraft (focus on mods and games)
Some games try to be a Minecraft clone but you don’t have to use them.
I done know if it has everything you need but in minetest ui you can find a game called mineclonia, it tries to be similar to minecraft.
