Oi, everyone! It's me, Ocean, and I'm here with yet another Blog! Today, we talk about something that I find to be rather confusing in the Minecraft community.
Today's topic: Are PC Minecraft Worlds Truly Infinite?
Now, I know what all of you are thinking. "Ocean, of course they are! Why else would they be called infinite?" Well, here's some food for thought: What if all PC Minecraft Worlds did have an end to them, in all four directions (North/South, East/West)? Here are some reasons why that would be true.
The first reason why I believe they have an end is because of how much space on your computer that would take up. I mean, really, you would need more than one computer if Minecraft worlds were truly infinite. It would take up so much space on your RAM and hard drive, as well, and you'd have to keep replacing them all the time from all the space it would take up (I would know how it all works, I'm in an IT class in high school). You wouldn't have any space for any other files or anything else on your computer itself, from all of the data that's being stored from that so-called "infinite" world.
The second reason is from when Minecraft was found to have an area called "The Farlands". It was taken out by Notch after Beta 1.8, since it was a glitch caused by going into chunks that had loaded incorrectly because of the world boundary. This further proves that the "infinite worlds" that we talk about all the time are not infinite after all, since the player could not enter the Farlands for long without getting practically game-breaking lag and high CPU usage, eventually causing Minecraft to freeze and, on occasion, caused the game to crash entirely and the world save to be corrupted.
The third reason why a Minecraft world wouldn't be able to be infinite is because of Minecraft's world boundary system. No, I'm not talking about the build height border or the Bedrock under the world. I'm talking about the actual boindary system that goes East/West. It makes sure that there's a boundary around every world, and all minecraft Worlds have one, and so do the Nether and End Dimensions. However, this boundary expands to a very far area around the world, making it usually impossible to reach, unless you actually bother to wander through the world just to look for it.
Anyways, hope you all enjoyed reading! :D Don't forget to drop a Diamond or Favourite if you did, and Subscribe for more Blogs like this one!
And as always,
Peace, love, and tridents!

And your 2ND point never holded any ground either its a glitch that happens before you can go through the boundaries emphasis on BEFORE
also there are hax you can use to get through the border do your research
The far lands are well known(for my generation of minecrafters) and thers all the info you need at the wiki.
This is really how we also started speculating about it in the good old days.
