The original story is still on the front page for fucks sake.

A friend of mine recently moved to the US. Over the years he had tried and failed to pass his driving test here in the UK. When he took his test over there, he passed first time.

MC Education edition is separate from what you call "Windows" edition. It's available on Windows, Chromebook, MacOS and iOS. It works cross platform.

The "Windows" edition (aka Bedrock aka Minecraft) is available on Windows, Android, iOS, Xbox, Linux, Playstation and Switch. Again, it works cross platform.

Minecraft Java is as cross platform as it's ever been and is still being developed, kid.

Do you even play Minecraft? It doesn't sound like you do.
