I stopped using Gameapass when I got a Steam Deck

Microsoft doesn't want me to use their product so I won't.

That’s why I stopped playing Minecraft, because they don’t want me to. (Bedrock with controller does not work on Linux)

33 minutes and nobody has offered an impractical yet potentiall workable solution(?) yet... maybe it really isn't possible.

Unfortunately that's the case with all UWP applications, they're deep-rooted into the OS

I played with using the google play store version, but it kept showing out of date and kept having to log back into google. Not worth my time.

WinBoat maybe? It's technically a Windows VM so it works better than Wine for certain things. No idea how well it'll worke with Minecraft though.

Play java edition is the only possible outcome (not sure if it works with a controller tbh)
