(Note: I didn’t know what topic to put it in so I just chose what I thought fitted best) Recently Mojang confirmed that game drops will continue to be the update system indefinitely, this means we won’t get a 1.22 anytime soon. Instead every drop is going to be another number behind the second dot, which before was only used for small patches and hotfixes. This makes it incredibly confusing as you have no idea what version number is what anymore. For an example 1.21.6 is the “Chase the Skies” Drop, but both 1.21.7 and 1.21.8 are regular patches, not a drop, but then 1.21.9 is “The Copper Age” drop. When making or using mods, data packs or resourcepacks this becomes really annoying, as you won’t know what versions are backwards compatible. I do understand why 1.22 is not happening as that would communicate that the size of the update should be comparable with the old major updates. So my suggestion is that we add another dot to the version number. So when the “Mounts of Mayhem” drop comes out, that version is going to be 1.21.10 and then if any hotfixes or smaller patches need to happen before the first drop next year, the version number would not become 1.21.11, but 1.21.10.1
