It makes no sense to me that there are two versions of the game. I’ll be watching a youtube tutorial video, and suddenly they’ll say “this doesn’t work on bedrock”.
Ugh! Then you find out it’s not just a simple ARM vs x86 issue. They function SLIGHTLY differently too. And they can’t coexist with crossplay. Bedrock is the nuetered version.
Just combine the games. I get console can’t host a server, but at least let them join servers!


Microslop is not allowed to monitise java. Thats why they made the bedrock edition. They also neutered the bedrock edition of mods because (free) mods would mean less money.
But there are servers that allow crossplay, but its a hassle for the owners & they cant use any java mods then, only plugins
