Hello! Its been quite some time since I last played but I am getting back into Minecraft and would love to be a part of this community again. Part of the reason I stopped playing is due to me getting some new responsibilities that prevented me from playing as much as I'd like. I travel quite a bit for work so I bought a Switch. I also bought the Minecraft for the Switch and, in doing some research, learned everything about the Bedrock editions.
I was wondering... has there been any talk of opening up a New Eden server running Bedrock? It seems that Microsoft wants to phase out the Java edition eventually so I think it is definitely worth considering. Not to mention, for many people, the Bedrock editions offer so much more flexibility with cross-play. Not only can you cross-play between the Switch, Xbox One and Windows 10 versions but also Android and iOS which would allow people to hop on and play basically anywhere they have a stable enough connection. More platforms will likely be added in the future, as well.
I know I would play a lot more if I could hop on New Eden on my Switch, computer and phone/tablet.
In the meantime, a secondary question: Can anyone recommend a bedrock server/realm until we get a New Eden one? (I don't think this counts as advertising a different server considering it is a different game engine for now 
)
Just found out that realms are limited to 11 people max on at once and user servers are only supported by the mobile and Windows 10 editions.
Microsoft y u do dis?
In that case, I'm still interested in joining a realm for the flexibility it offers. 11 people on at once still sounds like a good time to me.
