Minecraft Celebrates the Community! (Yes, that means you!) is a celebration of the Minecraft community, made to commemorate the game achieving one trillion views on the video sharing platform YouTube.^[1]

Summary

The video opens in "Minecraft build 0.0.11a, 2009" as a classic player builds with dirt blocks. A time traveler emerges from the ground with a shovel, asking "which build is this?" The classic player simply says "one of the first," causing the time traveler to take them down into a hole and sky dive into "Minecraft build 1.1???, present day." The classic player asks if the strange land they encountered is a DLC, only to be surprised when they find out it's actually built by Minecraft YouTubers, which have now generated a trillion views. The classic player is then revealed to be so old that they don't know what mining is, asking why people are digging a big hole.

The Classic Player continues, asking where people learn their skills, remarking they couldn't find a tutorial. The time traveler simply replies there "is no tutorial for this level of creativity." They walk past a redstone contraption and both remark that it's dangerous. A sea of arrows fall from the sky, forcing them to take cover, only to be affected by an antigravity mod. They then pass a Nether Portal under construction, which the time traveler refers to as being built by a hack. The two then uncover a griefer burning down a house, which the classic player is horrified by and asks for the legality of. The classic player asks why to do all of this, and the time traveler explains the monetary incentives of being a YouTuber.

After arriving at a beach and bumping into a disappearing horse, the classic player asks if "this was all part of Mojang's plan." They are told no in a condescending manner, before another time traveler voiced by Jens Bergensten emerges from the sand to propose showing the two the future.
