I still want to see bedrock on the mac. 😔

Out of curiosity, why do you want bedrock specifically?

In my experience, Java is much less buggy, plays better, and has significantly better modding support with no microtransaction bs. The only compelling reason I see is cross play.

You got the answer right there, it’s cross play. When you have child in the family who wants to play Minecraft on their iPad, and a parent who would like to join in on their Mac, you just can’t do it. And that stinks.

It also feels like relatively low-hanging fruit from a development perspective.

You could try running a server with geyser. It’s a plug-in that allows bedrock players to connect to Java servers.

Understandable, ty

To give you some insight, afaik, MacOS is the most horrible to port to because you can’t just compile for it and have to get the hardware first, pay for some sort of key second, and reacquire it every time you fail to port it. All of that is for a very insignificant bit of sales.

Linux, on the other hand, that I can not explain.
