How to Get Minecraft Bedrock Edition for Free

I have Minecraft Java but all my friends have Bedrock and I want to gamble with them, only my parents don't want me to pay again. Is there a more or less "legal" or "safe" way to do this?

These are no longer available for free.

But better convince them that they should play Java instead of the Bedrock garbage.

Back then there was bedrock for free for Java players, but that has expired

Hm… A shame but thanks

Bedrock is better for normies in single player. Java has better multiplayer and Redstone stuff, but Bedrock isn't exactly bad at that. Bedrock has many things that are helpful for building maps, such as colored water.
