So I have this issue where if I place a minecraft on powered rails and then porceed to activate the rails, the minecart won't move, unless I push it. I have also tried to power the rials first and THEN place the minecart on them, but it still doesn't do anything. Now, I don't know whether this is a parity thingy or if this is an actual bug, but as far as I know Java doesn't have this issue so I am this really is a bug, because it totally makes the powered useless at the moment

I'm not sure about Java behavior, but I do wonder: how would the game know which direction you want the minecart to go when you place it?
You can work around this issue by setting up the powered rail on an incline, or going out from a solid block.
