Optifine is well documented among the Minecraft modding community as a primary source of incompatibility and crashes for mods of various modloaders. There are plenty of alternatives that do not invasively alter the base code of the game to increasingly little benefit. https://empireminecraft.com/threads/psa-guide-why-you-shouldnt-use-optifine-1-16.84590/ https://youtu.be/wqXF4GgP9e0?si=1bttyEe79uelSttE https://docs.llaun.ch/en/faq/optifine-alternatives https://forum.quiltmc.org/t/why-you-shouldnt-use-optifine/78 https://prismlauncher.org/wiki/getting-started/install-of-alternatives/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1817632844774326314

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
