I've been running KDE plasma with wayland in arch for over a year now, it's been an absolute dream come true. Everything just works. Gaming with Proton, dual monitors with different resolutions, Japanese input, I only need to hop onto windows when my son wants to play Minecraft.

You might not need to even for Minecraft, have you seen this project? https://flathub.org/en/apps/io.mrarm.mcpelauncher (Android version of Bedrock made to work on Linux)

I maintain the AUR package for this. `mcpelauncher-linux` and `mcpelauncher-ui`. If you just do a simple `paru -S mcpelauncher-ui`, it should build just fine.

Very cool. Thank you very much

[shoobiedoo]

I haven't seen this! Thank you

To add to the solutions proposed you could also use a mod called geysermc to make the server compatible with both Java and bedrock.

Let me just say that luanti/minetest is a serious contender at this point.

Prismlauncher is great for playing Minecraft.

   nix-shell -p prismlauncher

Huh, why? Minecraft is Java. It works perfectly fine on Linux, both the server and the client.

Since MS bought it, aren't there two versions, a legacy one called "Java" and the newer one from MS, probably not in Java and with all the cool kids (multiplayer mode) on it?

[c0wb0yc0d3r]

There is Java and bedrock. Everyone I know has Java. There are other differences, but multiplayer is available in both.

[kelvinjps10]

The difference it's that bedrock allows you to play with the people that use Minecraft on consoles or mobile and Java doesn't

[array_key_first]

Another key difference is that Java has mods and shaders, bedrock doesn't.

Mojang is trying to fix this with resource and data packs, but even still, those are not full powered mods.

[wiether]

You're right, my bad!

I remembered some friends complaining about the fact the since MS, they couldn't play as they did before because of two versions co-existing
