Performance in Minecraft is notoriously bad no matter the system or PC settings you have, but there are plenty of third-party resources that intend to make playing smoother. This post is for discussing and recommending these resources so we can actually play the game, instead of playing an image slideshow.
Edit: Also recommending resources that help make experiencing Minecraft with the least hassle possible.
Minecraft Performance
More Minecraft performance mod stuff (especially for @rugged oxide ):
ImmediatelyFast optimizes the rendering for entities, block entities, particles, text (partially), and GUIs (partially). Even though I cap my framerate at 120, opening the Tab Player List on MCCI WITHOUT the mod kicks my framerate from 118 to 70. In my use of the mod, opening the Tab List on MCCI doesn't even kick my framerate below 100, that is if there's a performance hit at all.

Starlight is a pretty aggressive light system optimization mod that claims to be faster at the expense of breaking some mods. Personally, with my many months of using this mod, I haven't run into any problems, but that's probably because I'm a quality-of-life frog that loves installing mods that work on non-modded servers.
TL;DR: If Starlight makes your game run faster after installing it, then I recommend using it until you run into issues. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Apparently, block entities in Minecraft use entity models rather than block models, which is laggier when having many block entities in one place (say, lots of chests). Enhanced Block Entities makes Minecraft use block models to render some block entities, which increases performance drastically in some situations.
If you use this with Sodium, you have to install Indium as well.

Minecraft calculates entity collisions client side, even though entity movements are handled entirely on the server (except for stuff like items, experience orbs, and projectiles). Entity Collision FPS Fix removes the client-side check, boosting framerate when many entities are packed together.
P.S. This is mainly how I don't lag in the sub server shop :)

Minecraft's DataFixerUpper handles the process of converting older world data to newer world data. However, not only is this not necessary when playing in the same version of the game, the thing also lags the mess out of Minecraft's startup process.
Simply put, if your PC screams when Minecraft boots up, you might benefit from this mod. It's available for Fabric and Forge, but this is the Fabric link.

Skip Transitions isn't a performance mod, but it could be desirable. When Minecraft triggers a loading screen (like when loading the game, or changing resources or languages), it fades away over time. As the name suggests, this mod skips the loading screen transition, thereby closing the screen instantly. This can help your game move faster since the main menu buttons will appear much faster with this mod installed.

pls help with performance, i have a 3080 TI and i lag in minecraft LOL

completely disable xbox game bar
close spotify while not using it (its an electron app meaning its basically the same as having a chrome window open)
i mean really just check task manager, see what's using the most cpu, and keep it closed/disabled while playing if you can
https://github.com/Sycnex/Windows10Debloater if youre really obsessive then this script can help although it breaks the new minecraft launcher bc it removes some windows store stuff (if youre slightly less obsessive then only use the buttons to disable cortana, telemetry, and uninstall onedrive if you dont use it)
update your gpu drivers, disable geforce experience overlay
actually just disable like all overlays that you dont use, all of them come with a performance impact
disable any startup programs that you dont need running at all times
use minimum settings in nvidia control panel (you can just set it to "use my preferences emphasizing performance" and that will take care of most of it but if you want to go even further you can like disable all antialiasing for example)
also enable xmp in bios (can cause issues if you have very bad cpu/motherboard/ram/cooling but probably wont) & make sure your ram is in dual channel mode (if you have 2 sticks of ram, that means putting them in slots 2 and 4 or slots 1 and 3 instead of right next to each other)
none of these steps will make a huge difference on their own, so u can maybe skip like the spotify thing, but combined they should help improve things somewhat
oh also ive mentioned this before but make sure youre using the newest obs version, obs 28 doesnt give me nearly as bad of stutters as the older versions did (might just be me tho)
if youre looking to upgrade any part of your pc i would definitely recommend upgrading your cpu and motherboard btw
intel 12th and 13th gen are really good for games, maybe like a 13600k + a ddr4 motherboard would be a good upgrade if you have the $? would probably like double your fps for $500-$600 and then you can just sell your old parts on like ebay or something to make back $200 of that, tho you might also need to buy good cooling as well if you dont already have some

Minecraft Guidance
When you're experimenting with so many mods, it would be nice if the game were a bit more forgiving whenever a critical errors occurs. Instead of Minecraft closing completely in the face of an error, the mod NotEnoughCrashes attempts to save you, allowing you to return to the main menu whenever a crash occurs.

I have to put this mod here, even though it could be scary.
When you have many mods in the most recent version of Minecraft, but the server that you're trying to connect to isn't compatible with your version, Multiconnect tries to make your client act like an older version of the game to the server.
Notice: This isn't really necessary for most popular servers (Hypixel) since they run the compatibility on their end, but the server's implementation is not perfect (they can't stop players from 1.13 swimming, while this mod can).
However, if an error happens with this mod, the server might see you as passing illegal/ hacked data, and will have a reason to ban you instantly. I have this mod uninstalled for this very reason (I'm afraid of Hypixel), but if you're sure that the server won't kill you (a friend's older server, or the sub server before it updated to 1.19), then having this mod in your radar could save you a LOT of hassle.

Apparently, Minecraft doesn't cache blocked player UUIDs client-side on game launch, and instead grabs them from Xbox network every time any player sends a message, potentially causing the game to stall until Xbox sends a response. Think of this delay being equal to the amount of time that it takes to load a webpage; that's about how long you'll be at 0 FPS.
This mod breaks that feature, giving more performance.
To reiterate, if you use this feature and you install this mod, the feature will NOT work, but your game will be faster.
