So is there anything I can do?

I actually have this same problem. I have so much copper, my chests are full of it. But it litteraly has no use

It’s called redstone. It’s basically the in game version of wiring

I always kunda thought that myself. I play it, but I play it by myself, and it’s boring. It’s only when you play with other people that it becomes interesting and fun, unfortunately my wifi is terrible and can’t support online multiplayer
