I doubt they take much, if anything, from the sale of Minecraft. they make billions off of the merch and media rights to it, at this point I imagine sales of the game end up being a smaller part of that. and mojang needs the profit to keep pumping out updates to the game for them to sell.

Lyra_Lycan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 day agoLet your friend know to get Freesm Launcher. Its a fork of Prism Launcher, which is designed to give you easy control over multiple accounts and multiple instances, and Freesm in particular was made to remove the requirement for a M$ account.
I highly recommend purchasing directly from minecraft.net at least once, because despite the bastard publisher, Mojang do deserve the profit of the sale, whatever they get after M$ and payment processors take their share.

Or, if you like something closer to vanilla MC, maybe check out Luanti! I have a lot of fun. It’s really damn small and you can run it on fairly weak computers.
