Mimd you, there are two versions of Mimecraft. Java and Bedrock. Both support PC but only Bedrock supports other plattforms. Cross Plattform multiplayer therefore only works with bedrock. Java isn't compatible with bedrock servers and the other way around.

Although there are mods for the Java edition to allow Bedrock clients to connect to Java servers.

> Both support PC but only Bedrock supports other plattforms. You mean Bedrock supports consoles. Java supports Mac and Linux, so it's also multiplatform. Just different platforms.

  A bit confusing, but I think he was drawing a PC/mobile distinction, and it probably would have been better to say "desktop" instead of PC.

    Yes, i used PC because in the parent comment PC was used as well. Desktop is also not ideal because it runs on Laptops as well.

> Both support PC but only Bedrock supports other plattforms. Both support windows, but only Java supports other open platforms (where you can install external software, like Linux and Mac PCs, or others OSes/HW architectures). Bedrock is only published on closed platforms (games consoles, mostly, and app stores) and windows. Java is the only edition that supports mods. The android version of bedrock is also unofficially playable on Linux.
