If misplaced, turns back into cobblestone (unless you use a pickaxe enchanted with Silk touch), which then must be smelted again.Дirt is very weak and isn't the most beautiful material to build with either.

Must be smelted or mined with a Silk touch pickaxe.

Can be used to hide or camouflage underground bases.

Slightly faster to mine than cobblestone.

Has a relatively high blast resistance of 6 takes minimal damage from Creeper explosions.

Common and renewable via smelting the output of a cobblestone generator.

If used carefully, stone can create a distinctive look. The stone must be smelted from cobblestone. However, cobblestone has nearly the same properties as stone. Stone is overall a fairly strong and withholding material and is very abundant. Ultimately what looks the best is a matter of opinion, and there is no right or wrong way to decorate.

Just remember that it is usually better to have extra durability than too little. If there is no nearby lava or trees to spread fire and you aren't concerned about lightning, flammability isn't a problem either. If you can stop creepers from getting close, blast resistance isn't as important. If you don't expect to be attacked by players, then hardness shouldn't be a problem. Maximum durability is not always necessary. The main considerations to make are hardness, blast resistance, and flammability. The durability of a material is important, especially in PVP.

Some materials can be gained infinitely, while others must be sought in increasing distances from spawn.

Also to consider is the renewability of the material you would like to use. For example, in survival, making a house of cobblestone is certainly easier than making one of diamond blocks. Some materials are easier to get, while others are extremely difficult. When picking a material to build with, there are three main considerations: Obtainability, durability, and decoration.
