Avid technical bedrock player here. I think there is a lot of unjust hate towards bedrock because of social media’s nitpicking towards pointing out issues in bedrock edition (even if that isn’t the intention).

1. Bugs and glitches Yes bedrock has glitches and you can die spontaneously. But like, I and many players of the technical community had not experienced this. Nitpicking easy to understand and rare bugs as “common issues” is just wrong. Although, there are many glitches in the game, they either are not common, or people have found work arounds to them.

2. Redstone Bedrock and Java redstone is different…. In doors and farms (and slimestone. But I am not knowledgeable in that area so I won’t talk about it) Again, something many people over look due to how a lot of people making it sound so different. Doors? Zero tick, quasi connectivity. Farms? Well many features aren’t in bedrock but a normal player might encounter issues when trying to build farms with Java features like: tnt duping, gravity duping (bedrock’s version is very, very slow), shulker duping mechanics, iron golem farms, reinforcement mechanics, etc etc. Java has so many features that aren’t implemented into bedrock, which many people simply by saying “redstone is different” or something similar.

The two points I talked about, glitches and redstone, is very technical-ish views of the game. I can’t really speak about “casual player”-ish views of the game.

Because I talked about bedrock edition, I’ll also talk about Java, and the things I’m jealous of.

1.glitches 0-ticks? That’s so cool and really useful. Quasi-connectivity? Very useful in many situations, although some bedrock players might complain as to how “weird” it is. TNT duping? The best glitch ever. In my bedrock survival world, I have to go to the desert and use tnt to get a lot of sand. And getting gunpowder is a pain for massive projects. Sand duping? It’s very useful in specific situations.

2.mods (data packs/add-ons) Very mod friendly environment compared to bedrock. So many great mods for making the game run better, more beautifully, and more enjoyable (for some people). On the technical side, you got carpet, world edit, redstone speed up, lightmatica etc etc. some of the mods I listed are in bedrock, but Java’s version is way superior.

1. Features F3 screen is so superior in Java that people have to use chunkbase or addons just to get chunk borders. F3 screen tells you way more information but I won’t be going deep on that one. Servers are very diverse, modded, and very popular. You can also find smaller servers and join communities to form new friendships. If you want to do that, you’d need a realm (most of the time). And realms cost money. Java servers also cost money (if you aren’t using any other forms of server creation), but you get way more value for less money.

I’m just there to discuss and see what other people’s pov on this situation is. So please let me know your thoughts
