@solonovamax understandable. There's ways around it if you're REALLY wanting to play.
For example, there's a repo on GitHub for "Zenith proxy" which is software that you run on a server or PC that uses your Minecraft account details and logs you into 2b2t queue and puts your account into anti-afk mode until you decide to login and play, but you'd need another account to connect to the proxy server.
I've never personally ran one, but I hear it's not too difficult, one of my admins made one for our group and it even links up to discord and sends you notifications if someone unknown shows up nearby. That's how we knew we were getting griefed at exactly the moment they showed up.
