More devices

Could you have more devices be able to play Java?

I have a Chromebook, but I cannot play either version.

    Please! We're switching our kids to Chromebooks. They like Minecraft, and they couldn't care less between pocket edition and Java edition. Pocket edition works great on the Switch, and okayish on Kindle Fire tablets, but it cannot be installed through the Play store on Chromebooks, either x86-based or ARM-based. Java edition's performance on x86-based Chromebooks I've bought is utterly abysmal, and I can't even test Java edition on an ARM-based Chromebook.

    Please bring Pocket Edition, at least, to the app store on Chromebooks; I'm typing this feedback comment on an ARM-based Chromebook I bought specifically to test if it could do this, to see if it made sense to get a couple more for the kids.

    I've tried using, e.g. Steam Play to stream Java edition from a desktop machine, and the controls are completely broken. I've tried Remote desktop tools, and the controls don't work that well there, either.

    Please enable chrome devices for the pocket edition manifest; the customer base is there!
