linux-packaging-scripts VS BedrockConnect

It seems like you can play 1.19 in the latest version

Use MCPE Launcher. It downloads the Android version of minecraft and replaces native android libraries with corresponding desktop linux libraries. You need to own it on the play store, though and it crashes pretty often. The AUR version if outdated, use the appimage instead https://github.com/ChristopherHX/linux-packaging-scripts/releases

For Java, I would say Prism Launcher (in Discover app store), for Bedrock, your best bet is the Android version with this Appimage (you'll need to own the Android version and sign in with your Google account, just make sure to select the x86_64 version).

Best you'll get is this: https://github.com/ChristopherHX/linux-packaging-scripts/releases

This is Minecraft: Bedrock Edition running on SteamOS using MCPELauncher, which works by running the android version of Minecraft on Linux. So in order to play, you must own Minecraft on the Google Play Store.

This is the one, it's no longer supported. It works up to the last 1.18. You have to own bedrock on the android playstore, as it uses that version.

This works freaking great, but like we both said, it's not the latest version so online functionality is non-existent.

There are a few other troubleshooting tips listed here that could help if you're still having an issue.

As a quick option for instant access you could follow this workaround which is helpful to have https://github.com/Pugmatt/BedrockConnect then added the server this way.

The negatives to self host or third party is that xbox/switch/PS users will need to use a loophole redirect service in order to play, but for our group of players, its been worth it. https://github.com/Pugmatt/BedrockConnect

They'll need to use a service like bedrock connect but yes it is 100% possible and i've done the exact same thing in the past.

For the DNS, I recommend https://github.com/Pugmatt/BedrockConnect

Can't join custom servers on consoles (without a DNS hack)

On the Xboxen use Bedrock Connect (see How to Join a Bedrock Edition Server on Xbox/Switch, or if you're a tech geek, you can go right to the source at https://github.com/Pugmatt/BedrockConnect).
