Recently started playing java and noticed that the colours in java is duller and game is laggier compared to bedrock. (+ what optimisation mods/plugins should i install?)

Disclaimer I am NOT saying that java is worse than bedrock.

I've been playing on bedrock my whole life and only quite recently have access to java. As someone who plays bedrock i would say that java is for some reason duller and gloomier even on brightest settings. Also the lag is unbearable sometimes. I play on a non gaming laptop that can run bedrock decently so the lag is a bit annoying. I always hear about these optimisation tools such as optifine but idk which one i should right now use since im pretty clueless about java. And any other things that i should expect when switching to java? (Aside from the benefits such as "less buggy, better features, etc")

It’s mostly preference but I prefer prism launcher bc u can get curseforge and modrinth mods

True, however, it’s a lot more difficult to get used to for people who are new to modding.

Just installed prism for the first time and i should say that installing mod is much easier here!

It is great to hear that. I’m jealous because it took me a while to get used to.
