This is exactly what I was looking for... Thank you so much. I was so close to paying for redact to deal with this.

Why can't we go back to small phones? in c/technology@lemmy.world

I'm not gonna lie, as a 6'4" guy, I can't stand small phones. I understand that I'm an outlier though, and wish there were more options to cater to more people.

What is your greatest Minecraft Sin? in c/minecraft@lemmy.world
[–] heliophane@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Sure! I have a few

  • Better performance(I'm aware of sodium)
  • Simple Crossplay
  • One-Click modding API
  • Starting a world on my realm on my PC, and then continuing on my switch in bed
  • Split screen for when I have friends over to play on Console
  • .mcworld files make world management and creating backups really easy

I'm also well aware of bedrock's issues. The things that bother me:

  • Shitty offhand
  • The marketplace
  • Chat being mobile oriented so it takes up the entire screen

But overall, I've just kinda learned to really enjoy bedrock, and playing Java just feels like a hassle to me.

I'll go first. I strongly prefer Bedrock to Java and actively dislike the Java edition.

Edit: To clarify my reasoning(copied from a reply I made: Bedrock has a few features that I find to be really nice, and make Minecraft a much nicer experience for me
