Client Reply
by BIGBOIBEEF
Client Reply lets a player answer a chat message by pressing r, adding a reply to the chat line without typing the sender's name.
What it does
On the client, pressing r while a chat message is visible starts a reply to that message. The mod is a Fabric build for 1.21.9 – 1.21.11, and only the player's own game loads it, so servers run without it.

Key features
Reply shortcut
Pressing r selects the chat message being replied to and opens the input field ready for the answer.
Works on ordinary servers
Reply works on servers running the usual plugins, because the mod only changes how the client sends chat.
Single-player and multiplayer
The shortcut works in both modes, since the feature runs entirely inside the client game.

How it compares
