asyncchat moves Minecraft chat message handling off the main thread so chat traffic on a server does not cause stutters.

FabricServer-side onlyMIT License1.21.11

What it does

On a server, incoming chat messages are normally processed on the main game thread, where a burst of messages can stall the tick loop. asyncchat takes that handling onto a background thread, so chat rendering no longer competes with the main thread. The mod is server-side only: only the server needs it, and players join without installing anything. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source, and it requires Fabric API. Files are published for Fabric 1.21.11 only.

Key features

  1. Background message handling

    Chat messages are processed on a separate thread instead of the main game thread.

  2. Fewer chat stutters

    Message bursts on busy servers no longer freeze the game for everyone connected.

  3. Server-side install

    Only the server runs the mod, so clients need no changes to benefit from it.

Questions

Does asyncchat need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is required, so it must be installed alongside asyncchat on the server.

Do players need to install asyncchat?

No. Players join without it, since only the server has to run the mod.
