I "transitioned" to Vintage Story anyway.

As much as I think it's a shitty move, they warned about it for long enough, and they can't be expected to maintain a deprecated login system indefinitely.

I don't know if I migrated my account though, but since I only play on self hosted servers I don't care, worst case scenario I'll crack it to not need a login and be done with it.

Welp, guess my account is gone. That's kind of shitty but I bought it just out of alpha and realistically wasn't going to play it again. And now if I ever want to I'll just pirate it.

I'm glad I literally JUST bought a copy of Minecraft so I didn't have to deal with this mess.

But unfortunately I have to deal with Microsoft shenanigans now. And I can't even play the worse version on Linux.

Why would you want to play Bedrock on Linux? The Java version is great, supports mods, etc. The only reason I can think of is to play with console players in MP, so I recommend pressuring them to play the Java version so you can use mods (or play Minetest if they don't want to pay). It runs fine on most potatoes, so if they have a PC of any variety, they can probably run it.

There is also GeyserMC which translates Bedrock connections to Java allowing Bedrock players to join
