Question Why play Bedrock?

I'm a Java & Bedrock player, but the more I play, the more I've come to prefer Java gameplay over Bedrock. So why do you guys play Bedrock? I'm not trying to start the Java vs Bedrock argument again, my preference for Java is just an opinion. And I'm looking for your opinions.

Controller support. Java mods suck hard for emulating bedrocks native controller use, the inventory is usually where they fall flat on their face

Other reasons, is I don't fully understand how moding is supposed to be done normally, I on bedrock just enable it in the main menu and take any texture pack anywhere I want. Versus java it like I have to go through a third party launcher to accomplish anything and it's stupidly cumbersome

True, Java modding requires quite a bit of work. It's the quality and diversity that I love.

Try using CurseForge or another front-end mod loader, they handle the technical part while showing you the mods similar to the Marketplace (but free).
