I know this sounds fucking stupid and it probably us but I’ll ask anyway. Is there any way to pirate an account? Specifically a mc have account, mainly for multiplayer. Any other workarounds can be used for piracy?

Mainly asking cos some of my IRL friends suggested we should play mc and while I have an account I dislike playing on PC and don’t want to sync a personal account to an unsecured device.

Is this whole thing impossible and dumb? Is this the wrong community? I need advice

    My friend asked me to play minecraft a week or two ago and I tried to go to my old mojang account to find apparently someone else owns minecraft now and I missed the registration window to migrate. I’m annoyed at that, and incensed to find that the game which used to be complete, full-featured foss is now $40 for what-the-fuck-did-they-add-i-dont-care-to-find-out.

      I bought it in alpha when the language was that you would have every version of the game forever. I did migrate, but if I hadn’t microsoft wouldn’t give a damn. They certainly haven’t given me access to all the new versions.

      I was annoyed by this as well. Account went poof and I assume they would want me to pay again for Java? Shitty business practice
