It's funny you bring that up. Because it's par for the course. Bedrock is the prettier Minecraft, but JE is the gameplay Minecraft. Flashy shaders and shitty LOD have their splash for a few days. But ultimately they are not what Minecraft is about. Same thing happened with ray tracing. People think they want to play with those things because they're shiny, but then they realize their old hardware can't run it without lag, so they go back to their obby maps and squid game servers that look like shit but run at 60fps and are actually fun.

I mean, I'm running high detail shaders and distant horizons and my game runs like butter, as does my partner's who has a 2060 ti.

You'd be amazed how well fabric java Minecraft can run. For me there is zero point in even entertaining the idea of using bedrock.

I also run a java server with the geyser mod which means that bedrock players can play on it if they need to.

Java will always be the superior Minecraft version.

I agree for shaders, but distant horizons brings a level of immersion i have no felt to the game in a long time. Add this with the mod packs and its so good! (Ages fan here)
