"the repos are outdated" could also be added to ubuntu, to drive away users from using the ubuntu repos version instead of ppa or flatpack.

downloads.html Outdated
use
<a href="https://flathub.org/apps/details/net.minetest.Minetest">Flatpak</a>
or compile from
<a href="https://github.com/minetest/minetest/tree/stable-5">source</a>,
