    You can log in minecraft(Java) without using Microsoft authentication servers (and even if we couldn’t, we could just mod it in the game tbf)

  lmao, what can happen?

  Microsoft, a company i never did business with during my purchase of Minecraft, stole my copy because I didnt learn about the account migration in time.

    As said, you can still play the game without account on Java edition as of now (you have to either use a 3rd party launcher or launch the game from the terminal though)

    Anyway, i don’t know how the fuck Microsoft wasn’t sued for that ““incident””

      i’m pretty sure that both are illegal btw

      if you’re interested in this, somebody made an open source re-implementation of it with excellent modding abilities.

        No it"s not illegal, they don’t even break the EULA or TOS in anyway, maybe it does if you never bough a license for the game but that’s it;

        (Side note: i did read the entire EULA btw)
