Ari's Accessibility Tweaks
by adryd
Ari's Accessibility Tweaks lets a player on the client turn off a few visual effects that can be hard to see or uncomfortable, such as flicker and flashing.
What it does
The mod targets three effects. One switch removes the faint flicker that lamps and other light blocks cast onto surrounding surfaces, another halts the flashing shown as Night Vision wears off, and a third resizes the F3 debug chart to match the rest of the client interface. Each option can be changed on its own, and nothing else in the game is altered.
Only the client needs the mod, so a server can run without it and players can keep it on single-player worlds or in multiplayer alike. The code is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, and the source is public. Cloth Config API is required, since it supplies the settings screen. Builds exist for Fabric and Quilt, with 1.0.3 for 1.20.1 as the latest file, first published on 2023-05-01 and last updated on 2023-06-12. Snapshot builds are published as well.
Key features
Artificial light flicker
An option turns off the subtle flicker applied to surfaces lit by artificial light sources.
Night Vision flashing
A setting prevents the strobing that appears as the Night Vision potion nears its end.
Scaled debug pie
The debug pie chart on the F3 screen can be scaled to match the size of the rest of the client interface.
Settings screen
The options are grouped in a screen built with Cloth Config API, so each effect can be switched without editing files.

Use cases
Visual comfort in single-player
A player who finds flicker or flashing distracting can switch those effects off while playing alone.
Multiplayer without server changes
Players can apply the options on their own client, because the server does not need the mod to run.
Who it’s for: Players who are sensitive to flicker or flashing, and players who want the debug screen sized to their interface. Server owners do not need to install it for their players to use it.
