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.

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?
