Arrrr my fellow pirates. Since I'm very unexperienced with the seas I ask for you guys, where can I get Minecraft from for Arch Linux. It's not because I'm not willing to pay 20€ but because Microsoft is a giant bitch and I'm not willing to put money in their mouth(especially after they changed their privacy policy).

I like SKLauncher, and it just works for me. I did have to create an account on their website to use custom skins, though, so keep that in mind. If you want to play Bedrock, there is a patched Minecraft Bedrock Launcher which allows you to import an x86 apk to get MC Bedrock working. It's a very messy process. The Launcher (AppImage) can be hard to find, and the x86 apk is even more difficult to find. The latest I could find is 1.14, so I wouldn't bother with Bedrock. If you want Minecraft, use a cracked Launcher with Linux support like SKLauncher or others.
