Nope, hypixel is the largest minecraft server, although the definitely use a lot of server side mods and scripts to keep things functioning. Hytale is still certified classic vaporware. Anyone re-implementing minecraft would also have to reimplement all the quirks and undocumented interactions, as well as essentially staying compatible with forge and the apis mods expect. So whatever rewrite has to be in a JVM, and might as well just stick with java. Look at bedrock edition, the only people who play it are people who mis-clicked when buying or don't own a PC. The closest anyone ever got was minetest, in C++. But honestly at this point, why rewrite a game of all software? It's not mission critical to anything (I hope) and

The core minecraft community - streamers, modders, tech folks ... might be all about java edition. But I think bedrock is where the money and quantity is at this point. And despite what mojang says, I find it hard to believe that they want to maintain two code bases of converging games in the long run. Bedrock has the performance potential. Java has the mechanics that the core community prefers. Still.

  Bedrock is essentiale modified PE edition

    Not modified per se, it is Pocket Edition (PE). It was renamed because it obviously isn't just on phones any more. With iOS, Android and FireOS, it's also on Windows 10/11, Xbox One/Series, PS4/PS5, Nintendo Switch and Chromebook.

  Most of the young kids (including mine) are growing up playing Bedrock, not Java.

    My kids did too, but now they only play the Java edition.

actually the rewrite seems not to be compatible with forge or whatever. It is not depending on original minecraft code. Still on jvm.
