What is parity? This category is designed just for features that exist but work one way on one platform, and another way on a different platform. Bugs are not parity! Items in snapshots and betas are subject to change so please be sure to only post about things that are currently released in Minecraft. Please read the intro post before you post!

Bring back all these Bedrock features you removed for "Parity"

You have removed tons of features from Bedrock Edition that had no negative impacts to the gameplay loop, were enjoyed by the playerbase, and if parity is the design intent, could have been added to Java without a negative experience to their playerbase. We, the Bedrock playerbase, request that you add these features back to the game. Thank you.

    I feel like the types of changes that were made in this list are the exact opposite of what the community is looking for when we ask for parity. we want things that improve the user experiance from one version added to the other not to remove things that increase the ambiance and quality of life from one version because it doesnt exist on the other especially when its being removed from the version that has more limitions and is significanly behind in features.

    Just let bedrock be bedrock. Java players won't play bedrock, bedrock players prefer bedrock

    Yes, but also add things from Java that bedrock doesn't have, like being able to put ladders on the backs of stairs and trapdoors, and the sweeping edge enchantment on swords.

    As a bedrock player I'm tired of parity meaning a downgrade it should improve both versions not make them worse.

    Also locator maps still showing a directional arrow when you go outside of it!

    Don't forget the one good feature with the horse! Horses didn't take fall damage so it was a pretty safe way to travel as long as you could oversee the fact that some woods were impossible to traverse through, but it was safe and it was fun, now you only want to travel on roads you cleared from all hazards. As it is now who would travel with anything but the elytra? Make mounts matter again!

    How about remove the ability for Java players to use doors etc to breather underwater. Surely that is not an intended mechanic of the game for underwater exploration

    Can you give me the versions removed and whether they are on a bug report?
