    Strong support for this idea. Sulfur powder could get involved with the brewing system too, adding a new brewing recipe or even as a new potion modifier. Adding sulfur item could also help the mod community to unite the sulfur item between lots of technical mods.

    This would be very good to have, I hope they either add an ore for the item or make the blocks drop 4 (or allow crafting them into 4 powders, which can be crafted back into the blocks). Could potentially be crystals instead of powder, too, but either works.

    sulfur powder + charcoal = gunpowder.
    That is something they should make.

    Yeah, it’d be nice to have an item form of sulfur, either from frogs eating sulfur cubes or from crafting from the blocks.

    It’d be useful for providing another farmable method for gun powder (peaceful method without creepers) and it could be used as fertilizer for farming crops, like instead of instant bonemeal it has an longterm expiration effect where while applied to farm blocks it speeds up crop growth until used up and requiring to be reapplied to the farm block.

    The sulfur item could also be used to create a blue-purple fire for torches and such.

    I have a way to use and obtain sulfur dust (farmable as well) but with more ideas intertwined to the dust

    One way to expand on the TNT functionality inside sulfur cubes could be to maybe add optional upgrades to control when the explosion happens. For example you could use magma cream to enable an “impact mode” which would make it explode on impact (player hit, collide with an entity or any surface of a block). Then, instead of always exploding on the first hit, there can be a new item: sulfur cube goo (dropped from baby variants, so it means its farmable)

    Each goo adds a sort of charge (extra bounce before exploding) so:

    • No goo means it explodes on first impact or just punching it right away lol
    • more goo added means it will explodes after multiple impacts instead (impact numbers before boom = how many goos you add)

    This makes makes players able to scale it up for more control in contraptions or minigames :D The goo could also have extra uses

    • crafting 1 goo + 1 gunpowder gives you 2 sulfur dust
    • sulfur dust could
      • Slightly increase explosion size when applied to sulfur cube TNT (would also work without impact mode)
      • be used to craft stronger “sulfur TNT” for clearing larger areas (can potentially be used in the sulfur cube as well, but not able to use the dust inside it ofc, or maybe?)
      • also add new colored flame variants like you said (torches, lanterns, campfires), similar to how some materials affect fire color like copper! though I don't know how it would work since we already have soul fire
      • but also the other ideas you gave!
