FallingTrees
by [Sheep's]
With FallingTrees, a player who sneaks and mines one log can have the whole connected tree come down in one action, up to 500 logs per break.
What it does
Breaking a tree is normally a log-by-log task. FallingTrees changes this so that mining a single log while sneaking removes every connected log of the tree, and the effect is tied to the sneak key rather than running all the time. A built-in overlay can be switched on by each player for their own client. The mod is aimed at survival players who clear forests and at server owners who want faster wood collection without a command.
The mod runs on the server side, so the server is required and the client is optional. Clients that install it gain the overlay option, while players who join a server without it still see the feature working. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with a Data pack build for server platforms, across 11 release versions covering 1.21.5 – 26.2, and snapshot builds are published as well. It is distributed under All rights reserved and is not open source. Its public issue tracker is the place to report problems.
Key features
One-action tree felling
Mining one connected log while sneaking removes the whole tree in a single break, instead of one block at a time.
Sneak-based activation
The effect applies only while the player holds the sneak key, so normal breaking keeps working as usual.
Break limit
Each felling removes at most 500 logs, and the process stops on its own once that cap is reached.
Built-in overlay
Players can enable a built-in overlay themselves, and it is separate from the server-side felling logic.

How it compares
Timber Enchantment is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later, for 1.21 – 26.3, and is needed on the server, with the client optional, with a server that runs it enough on its own. Timber Physics is open source under the MIT License, for 1.21 – 26.1, and likewise needs only the server. Quary is not open source, is published under All rights reserved for 1.21.5 only, and also needs only the server, while FallingTrees covers the wider 1.21.5 – 26.2 range.

What the author says
In versions before 2.0, mining at once is always done while not sneaking and is not configurable. In versions before 2.0, the overlay is serverwide and an operator has to run
