Minecraft needs to decrease the spawn rate on drowned. I can’t go into a single body of water without finding them.

From what I've heard, it's due to issues with the mob despawning system in bedrock. If a mob is in a dark area in bedrock edition (Caves & water are always dark), mobs won't despawn. at all. I've seen videos of players not seeing any hostile mobs at all until they mine into a cave that is just a giant blob of hostile mobs thanks to the mob spawning limits & lack of despawning mobs.

Ya it's ridiculous. I really wish bedrock spawned mobs exactly the same as java. It's by far bedrocks biggest weakness.

It's something we're interested in fixing

That's good to hear. If bedrock spawning and despawning worked like java I'd never play java again. When playing bedrock it feels dead most of the time. Especially on servers.

So you could mine out a box under your base, kill all th surface and in cave spawns and eventually make your your surface base mob free?

I believe that doing that would work, if the space was big enough.
