I left after the Java chat/sign/whatever filtering controversy. Never got into bedrock edition, so I never had to worry about it. Don't know if they backed down on it, though.
And the microtransactions are also absolutely abhorrent as well. Never felt with them, but I don't know a single sane person who actually like them.
I don't like Microsoft but don't think I can run away from Minecraft. Got a server with my friends and I really like the game. What would even touch it as a competitor or alternative?
