The Minecraft java 1.16.4 version has been released today ! This is the last version for the 1.16. This update adds the new social interactions screen and fixes a few crashes. As you may know, all players of the java version will soon need to move to a Microsoft account to continue playing. If you want to learn more about that, i recommend you this post on the official website and also this FAQ. I will update all the 1.16.3 premade servers to 1.16.4 as soon as possible, then i will finished my free servers that will release for 1.16.4.
To be honest, i was a bit stressed as i did not had the time to do all i wanted those last 2 weeks, but with 1.16.4 that is out now, i will be able to work with the last 1.16 version, and this is perfect !
