It really is crazy how true the 1000x statement is.
We use QuickJS (the JavaScript runtime he authored) in Minecraft (Bedrock) where even more developers use it to mod Minecraft. It's a huge pyramid of developers!
Checking out Bellard's website is a great high level list of works: https://bellard.org/
i would hope that one day bedrock edition will support macos just like education edition does (which runs on the exact same engine), but i fear that microsoft might have bought mojang expressly to prevent that from happening
You have your timeline confused. When Microsoft bought Mojang, the only version of Minecraft on PC was Java Edition. It wasn't under the next year that they released the Windows 10 Edition (which is what became Bedrock on PC).
I don't think that was a confusion of mine? Microsoft may well have bought Mojang to develop Windows 10 Edition and then once Bedrock Edition became sooo cross-platform they just. Happened to miss macOS. By total mistake. (A port even exists as part of Education Edition and they're not selling it as part of Bedrock Edition.)
