Burnout
by MrPenguin11
Burnout is a joke Fabric mod in which torches burn out about 0.1 seconds after they are placed, and it adds Weak Torches that do the same.
What it does
Burnout changes torches so that each one goes out almost as soon as it is set down. The author also added Weak Torches, which burn out right after placement, and a feature called Eternal Darkness. The mod is marked as a cursed joke, and the author notes that it has not been tested much and invites bug reports in the comments. It is published for Fabric and requires Fabric API. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, and the files target 1.21.8 only, with the license set to CC0 1.0 Universal.

What the author says
This jokey mod makes the new Weak Torches I've added "burnout" right after being placed, which means... Eternal Darkness! I haven't tested this mod that much so comment about any bugs you see.
