Check if two blocks are equal ignoring data (nbt, properties)

This thing works but is ugly af:

world.getBlockState(bedPos).getBlock().getRegistryName().toString().equals(Blocks.BED.getRegistryName().toString())

You can use == to check Block instances, as they are singletons: world.getBlockState(pos).getBlock() == Blocks.BED. This works for all IForgeRegistrys (look at the ForgeRegistries class).

Ok, I need to sleep now. I didn't think about comparing Blocks ...

You may also use instanceof in comparisons where any subclass will do. If some mod makes a custom bed by extending the vanilla class, then an '==' would only match the vanilla bed and not recognize the mod one. What you choose depends on what you're trying to accomplish.
