Port Bedrock to Linux-Based Systems

I've been begging Mojang for years, and yet they NEVER LISTEN. Please, just make a Linux/Mac port of the game that doesn't require you to own it on Google Play or pirate it. I don't want to spend an additional $20 just to play the game on another device and piracy is illegal... what else can I do? I mean, for MacOS, Bedrock is already on iOS, they run the same basic apps, you can run iOS apps on Mac, so why not port it? I know jailbreaking, exporting the .ipa, and running it on my Mac is a valid option, but I seriously don't feel like doing that. For Linux users, they have the same issue. I get Microsoft owns Minecraft, so maybe they want people to switch to Windows... but using a VM is seriously a pain, so please, please port bedrock to linux... I really want it to finally happen. I mean, if you have to, deprecate Java... No, I'm kidding, please don't. But still, please just port Bedrock to Mac and/or Linux. As a Mac user this infuriates me, as I can't use any Bedrock exclusive things. Bedrock is already on almost all platforms, EXCEPT for Mac and Linux. Please, just listen for once, it's not that hard...

    I second this, I really want Minecraft Bedrock on Linux too. It's honestly crazy that we got a damn ChromeOS version sooner than a Linux/MacOS release, I don't think it would be that hard to port over to these two platforms, but what do I know.

    Agreed. I want to be able to play Minecraft Bedrock on my Steam Deck. Better portability.
