make it possible for Bedrock and Java players to play together

I've had this issue for SO LONG! I have a lot of online friends and sometimes we decide we want to play Minecraft together, but someone ALWAYS has Bedrock and then I can't play with them. Is it that hard to make it so Java players can sign in with their Xbox Live account?

    It is very hard. One of the reasons is that bedrock is made using c++ and java is made using java, if they were to do that they'd have to replace one for the other.

    This would pose far too many technical difficulties unless Java and bedrock were 100% identical, and that's never going to happen. Can you imagine Java or bedrock players trying to do PvP or redstone together?

    I want them to recreate PE version using only Javascript so that we could do crossplay between PE and Java

    I agree. I have just recently gotten Minecraft java edition, and all of my friends either play on pe or bedrock and we all want to play together despite it not being possible. While I have Java and cannot redeem the bedrock edition anymore, I would have to buy pe or bedrock to play with them.
