Go to Linux Lemmy and search for Minecraft. There was a post few days ago on how to run it in Linux. Nobody had answer in how to run it natively nobody. It was not far long that Linux on any version had problems accessing YouTube b cause of flash, and installing flash was no easy job with multiple dependencies. Now it may work here and there may be 80% but as easy as windows .no way , it's not a everyday OS who don't want to touch Terminal ever.
You don't need to run it natively, it runs just fine on Linux with Proton. I'm not sure you understand how far it's come since Steam Deck. Dwarf Fortress plays better on my Linux laptop using Proton than using the Linux runtime version. Like way better.
I don't care about Minecraft, so I don't know specifics. But why would I search lemmy for a solution like that? A quick Google search shows Minecraft is playable on Steam Deck, which means it's playable (probably better/easier) on a Linux desktop. It's a very popular game, so there were even hotfixes to Proton in the past to make sure it works
