What it does

When a player joins a world or server, the mod shows a dad joke in chat. The jokes come from the icanhazdadjoke API, and the set covers corny, punny and groan-worthy material. Installation needs Fabric API on Fabric and Forge Config API Port on Forge and NeoForge. Only the client needs the mod, and it is open source under the MIT License. Builds exist for 1.18.2 – 26.2 across Fabric, Forge and NeoForge.

Key features

  1. Join-time jokes

    A dad joke appears when the player enters a world or joins a server, with no command needed.

  2. Online joke source

    Jokes are fetched from the icanhazdadjoke API, so the pool is not limited to a fixed list in the mod.

  3. Pun-heavy collection

    The jokes are corny, punny and groan-worthy, matching the theme of the mod.
