Geyser is built to only support the latest major release of Bedrock at any given time. Betas are not supported, and older version are not supported for maybe more than a minor revision or two for a limited time.

I used major because that means the first two number sets in the version string (i.e. 1.17) whereas anything past that is a minor version.

However, "versions" should be updated, although i think i meant to put "any other version" although that is also a grammar fail.


If you need to use Geyser with your own "outdated" server, you need to install [ViaVersion](https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/viaversion.19254/). You must either: use Java 16 on your server; or if your plugins are not compatible, you must either use the standalone or a Bungeecord/Velocity setup running on Java 16.

A lot of "either" here makes this hard to flow.

Fair point, but I personally don't like the revised wording either... I'll think about it a bit.

You must use Java 16 on your server. If you can't or won't run that, we recommend using standalone or Bungeecord/Velocity versions that can run on Java 16.

maybe?

Because some of us won't run it.

Or maybe this

You must use Java 16 on your server that's running Geyser. If you don't go that route, we recommend using standalone or Bungeecord/Velocity versions that can run on Java 16.

I think that Geyser requires Java 16 on your server to run. sounds a bit better than You must use Java 16 on your server.

I agree with you.


If you need to use a private standalone GeyserMC with someone else's server, look into using [VIAaaS](https://github.com/ViaVersion/VIAaaS) which has some [public instances](https://github.com/ViaVersion/VIAaaS/wiki/List-of-Public-Instances) available. The [Public GeyserConnect](https://www.geyserconnect.net/) also hosts an instance to minimize additive ping from jumping across multiple proxies in different locations.
