Redstone does more things in java. Personally, if you need the performance gains then Windows 10 is the way to go. Runs buttery smooth on my gf laptop that struggled to run Java MC.

If you did buy Minecraft: Java Edition before October 19th, 2018, then you might not be aware that you’re entitled to a FREE copy of the Windows 10 version.

Is it possible to play Java games with Windows 10 players?
Java Edition and Windows 10 Edition are not compatible. It is impossible to play together unless one of you switches to a version compatible with the other: either he switches to Java Edition, or you switch to Windows 10 Edition.
Thus, you cannot crossplay Java with Windows 10. No, cross-play between Java and Bedrock Edition is not possible. I would recommend either buying Java Edition or Bedrock Edition and then playing together. Bedrock is better for this, as you can connect for free via Xbox Live, and Java only supports LAN play.
