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
Yea, fuck micropenis
Perhaps a bit off topic, but relevant - the open source clone of Minecraft, MineTest, is now more than feature complete, fully multiplayer, has much lower hardware requirements, and has quite a few things that MineCraft lacks. And it’s free.
Maybe j could cknvice them to go there.
Could j host a server on an android device?
You can host on an Android device, yes.
I would imagine that it might only work well for 2-3 friends, but I haven’t tried it. Hosting is built into the MineTest engine, and it runs much smoother than MineCraft, particularly when hosting on underpowered devices.
I routinely host 6 friends on my out-of-date laptop (while playing it, myself) and I’ve hosted 2 or 3 friends on my SteamDeck with no issues.
I run about 30 plugins full time, but you could scale back to fewer plugins, if needed, to tune the game to your available devices.
Oki, thank you, I’ll see what I can do
Some people suggest hosting your own server, buy you dont have to. You can use https://aternos.org to create a server for you and your friends without hosting it in your pc.
Will look into that.
Would a served there use the Microsoft auth? Tryna avoid that. Want a server that can be accessed by pirated copies
The server’s don’t necessarily have to use Microsoft auth, so it can be used with unofficial Minecraft clients.
So I don’t have to install? Nice
For minecraft you can just use a offline mode in pretty much every 3rd party launcher, like SKLauncher
I know, I plan to use that android one, polyjav launcher ibthtink it was called.
The problem is multiplayer
you can play on multiplayer just fine, as long as server have enabled offline-mode
What does that mean? Sorry. Just confused
Basically the server needs to allow you to connect even though you’re not authenticated with microsoft’s online account server. You would do this for instance if the entire multiplayer session was on a LAN with no internet connection. You probably won’t find servers that allow it over the open internet unless they have some other way of vetting who is connecting. So you’ll probably only be able to do it with servers you or your friends personally host.
