Just of note, this is worked on by the team at Heroic (a game launcher that’s like Lutris but specifically for game stores, like GOG), certainly not Microsoft. Why on earth would MS willingly reduce the dominance of Windows? They’re a for-profit megacorporation! It’s one of the reasons why Minecraft Bedrock isn’t natively supported by Linux. They can definitely do it, it runs on C++, they just choose not to and have Windows have the privilege of running Java and Bedrock editions of Minecraft.
“Now with more telemetry and spyware!”. Nah, I’d rather play xcloud on my browser instead.

yep, my thought, and my reason for the no thanks.
I dont even play minecraft anymore due to their GDID bullshit with microsoft accounts, which they forced everyone to change their mojang accounts too.
