When you are making your redstone suggestions, please note that Java and Bedrock will not have the exact same the same redstone systems - this would require redoing redstone system completely on one platform or the other. The two systems are functionally different and are going to stay that way. Please be sure to tag your suggestions with (Java) or (Bedrock).

Hoppers should prevent items on top of them from despawning, to a point.

Every time a hopper grabs a new stack of items from a pile on top of it, the twenty youngest stacks should have their despawn timers reset. This would allow someone to drop a bunch of stuff into the hopper input of their storage system, and not have to worry as much about losing anything.

    Nifty bit of quality of life, though the stacks being refreshed should be the oldest ones, not the youngest ones. After all, resetting the item stacks, that potentially have been dropped on the hopper a second prior would have basically no effect compared to resetting a stack, that might be approaching its despawn time, having been dropped on the hopper several minutes prior.

    This is a nice idea. It can decrease wasting of items.

    I love the idea but this doesn't sound good for overloaded farms it would need to be for player thrown items only or else it would be vary laggy
