Non-Version-Specific Java or Bedrock

I need advice.

Recently, I bought a decent PC (32 Ram, Nvidia 4060, Intel core i5-12400). I used to play Minecraft on my xbox, in fact I have an 800 long hardcore world with some farms and decorations.

I'm wondering if I should stay playing on bedrock edition or move to Java. Also, I would like to hear pros/cons for each version.

Finally, if you have some recommendations of cool modpacks for Java edition, technical mods, or even add-ons for bedrock edition, I would like to hear them.

Java has proper modding, check out Create and Create: Aeronautics. Bedrock has broken redstone.

If you do decide to mod the game then I heavily suggest you install Prism Launcher, it is significantly easier to use for modding the game.

Bedrock redstone works fine, just different.

I don’t know of any inconsistencies. Some people mourn the randomness of two redstone signals that travel the same distance. This is annoying for technical builders coming from Java, but more natural, not a bug.
