There are a few repos where it might actually be possible if you are willing to tinker and accept the very high risk of getting banned. Specifically the ViaBedrock library and the ViaProxy application. Right now, These tools are highly experimental and serve more like advanced world viewers rather than ways to legitimately play on servers but they also work on bedrock realms as well. Worth giving a try if you know what you are getting into, Was going to make a video on this rabbit hole although I massively overcomplicated what I wanted to share with that project. Especially with figuring out bedrock server world archival, ReplayMod, and a ton of other stuff with the Lifeboat featured server I’m a big supporter of.

Thanks for sharing about this, That’s really quite a cool and inspiring story to hear regarding the development of the platform and specifically the nature of the people and connections who made it possible. It might have been a bit of a risk but it seems unlikely that the platform would have scaled as well without outside help.
