Entity Count Client
by Gahaha
With Entity Count Client, a counter in the HUD lists how many entities of each type are loaded in the chunks around the player, updating in real time.
What it does
Entity Count Client counts the entities loaded in the chunks around the player and shows the totals on screen as a list, grouped by type, so mobs, animals and items can be tracked during play. The display can be turned on or off with a quick toggle, limited to living entities such as animals and mobs, and recolored by setting the text, background, item and entity colors with transparency in ARGB. Text size can be adjusted by scrolling, and the display can be dragged to any position on screen.
A whitelist mode restricts the list to chosen entity types only. Both the open configuration screen key and the toggle key default to O and can be remapped in the Controls settings. The mod also accepts in-game commands for most of its settings, and the interface is translated into more than 29 languages including English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Russian. It runs in single-player and on multiplayer servers as a lightweight client mod.
Installation needs Cloth Config API and Fabric API on Fabric, and Cloth Config API on NeoForge. Mod Menu is optional and adds a settings entry in the mod list. The mod is published for Fabric and NeoForge across 17 release versions, 1.21 – 26.3, and is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

How it compares
Better Stack Count is client-side only, open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later and published for 1.21.1 – 26.3 on Fabric and NeoForge, which is close to this mod's loaders and range. Play Time Display is client-side only and NeoForge-only, for 1.21 – 26.1, and is not open source. Entity Distance Hud is server-side only, Fabric-only, for 1.21.3, under the MIT License, so it runs on the server rather than the player's client.
