So one of the FAQs about the account migration is "Is Java being phased out?" and the official answer is no, but I can't help but feel that yeah, Java kind of is being phased out. At the very least, Mojang seems to be presenting Bedrock as the "official" edition, with all the fancy cross-platform play. What really got me thinking this was when they decided that Bedrock should be the one to be titled Minecraft, and they gave Java the official title "Minecraft: Java Edition."
Now, it doesn't really seem that bad if it is, but here's the thing: most of the community knows that Bedrock lacks a lot of the abilities of Java (even if that is being slowly fixed), but there's also the problem of the Marketplace: it's stupid. It's an attempt to monetize a creator's ability to modify the game, and I absolutely deplore it. It locks modifications behind a transaction wall, and it removes some of the creative freedom of actual creators.
However, this is all based on an idea, and I sincerely hope that that idea proves false. If Mojang keeps Java the way it is (or actually improves it), and doesn't try to force Bedrock upon the community, then I will be perfectly content.
TL;DR: I think that Mojang is sort of kind of maybe trying to say that Bedrock is better than Java, and I don't like that.
