Sounds like the bedrock-only part is just a visual update. If you're on Java you already have access to shaders.
But still - fuck MS for making bedrock a totally separate game so they could avoid giving alpha buyers free in app purchases.
But they gave all bedrock players who bought it from minecraft.net java edition for free and are now selling both games
Also, bedrock edition was created years before microsoft bought mojang
The in-app purchases are obviously bad and mojang tried making bedrock edition the "official" version, but there were reasons other than money that the 2 versions were separated
