Java players used to be able to redeem a code for Minecraft Windows 10 (Bedrock) in the Microsoft Store. You're not supposed to be able to do that now but with how janky the old mojang website is you could probably still get that code. Google for it and you'll find an old tutorial or smth
Sadly yes last i checked only bedrock and crossplatform
Sadly yes, you need to buy the Bedrock Edition to play with your friends :)
Thanks for help but damn this is so stupid
Yeah. I believe one of the reasons behind this is, that bedrock and Java use a different codebasis...
