#minecraft 1.19.1

So here's my theory on the 1.19.1 thing:

the community responds by modding the chat reporting feature out of the game (they already have)

Mojang responds by cracking down on modding

Java edition takes a hit in popularity as a result

Java edition is eventually discontinued for not making enough money (because it was intentionally sabotaged)

everyone is forced to play Bedrock and use the Mojang-controlled Minecraft Marketplace for all their modding etc. and minecraft becomes yet another pay-to-do-anything game of endless microtransactions

Somewhere in there is the second recession of the minecraft youtube community, because no way in hell are a lot of these people moving from Java to Bedock voluntarily.

SERIOUS WARNING if you PLAY MINECRAFT

If you have not heard already, 1.19.1 has been released and with that comes the feature nobody wanted: CHAT REPORTING. At first glance this seems great but Mojang's way of doing it is terrible. If someone chat reports you to Mojang, you can be BANNED from ALL OF MUTLIPLAYER, not just a server. Most Minecraft servers already have their own chat moderation and this feature bypasses those features. This reporting feature also infringes the rights of private server owners as this bypasses their own rights to run their servers how they want. And to top it off, this system is HIGHLY EXPLOITABLE meaning someone can potentially spam reports to Mojang to get someone innocent banned. The time is now to stand up against Mojang and tell them we don't want this.
