sharedworld.net Observed source

Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An open-source Fabric mod that lets friends share a Minecraft world while whoever is online hosts it.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

SharedWorld coordinates host handoffs around a synchronized Minecraft save rather than keeping one player's computer permanently responsible for the world. The page reports support for Fabric and NeoForge on Minecraft 1.20.1 and newer, with Google Drive or an S3 bucket handling storage and e4mc, a custom address, or a VPN handling connections. Its displayed activity figures include more than 260 worlds created and 195 GB of worlds kept in sync.
