Most PC gamers use Windows, consoles or devices. The non-Windows gaming market is very small.

While I prefer Java edition, my kid much prefers Bedrock, because it has the main killer feature of being able to share a world directly with friends. Anyone that's an XBox Live friend can see when they're playing on-line, and join the world. No need to set up a realm, run my own server online somewhere, or punch a hole through the firewall to the minecraft server at home etc.
