Thoughts on deleting my Microsoft account, including my Minecraft license? (lemmy.world)

I haven't played Minecraft since 2015, but I get the feeling I might again in the new few years as I wanna find new hobbies. I know that game has changed a whole lot but I don't have any official online data on it.

I've had this Microsoft account for over a decade and its probably full of personal information that I wanna let go of, I've already exported all my data. I would need to pay $30 for another copy of Minecraft, same price I paid in 2013. I just did a bunch of searching and its not possible to transfer my Minecraft license to another account.

The Java edition is in the middle of being phased out

They have been releasing updates with new features to the Java version every 3 months.

but I assure you it will be gone soon.

It's been 11 years dude.

MS eventually ruins everything. But Minecraft has lasted unshitified longer than some open source projects. I'm not going to stop using Jellyfin just because in 20 years it will turn into Plex.
