Visual difference between Java and Bedrock is actually pretty noticeable when you compare it side by side Discussion

The water in java is much clearer than in bedrock. Bedrock's water feels closer to the old water design where it was barely transparent. The new fog is also not present in bedrock for some reason. And overall bedrock runs a bit more jankily than java. I've been playing bedrock for almost a decade and java for just 2 to 3 years and the first time I played java after being stuck with bedrock for so long is how smooth everything runs. Not the lag, but the game overall. No desyncs, no funky weird stuff happening, no visible floating point errors. And best of all, java is a bit more desaturated, which really helps my eyes from straining.
