InstaQuit
by Radflunder
InstaQuit lets a player leave a world or server with one configurable keypress, skipping the save and confirmation screens of the normal exit path.
What it does
Pressing the bound key closes the current singleplayer world or multiplayer server at once and returns the player to the title screen, without the delays or confirmation prompts that the standard quit menu shows. The key is set in the controls options, so each player picks the binding they prefer. The same behavior applies to singleplayer worlds, multiplayer servers and Realms.
Fabric API must be installed alongside InstaQuit, since the mod depends on it. Because only the client needs the mod, a server runs without it and players join it without installing anything. The mod works with Universal Compatibility, and its files target the Fabric loader for the range 1.21 – 1.21.10, with 1.21.10-1.0.0 for 1.21.10 as the latest build, released under All rights reserved. The code is not open source, though public links to the source and the issue tracker exist.
Key features
Single-keypress exit
One configurable key closes the world or server immediately, with no extra menu steps.
No confirmation screens
The exit skips the confirmation prompts that normally slow down leaving a session.
Singleplayer, multiplayer and Realms
The same key works in a local world, on a multiplayer server and in a Realm.
Low overhead
The mod adds no measurable processing cost to the game, since it only listens for one key.

Use cases
Leaving a server quickly
A player who needs to disconnect at once can press the key instead of opening the pause menu and choosing the disconnect option.
Closing a world without prompts
In singleplayer, a player can leave a world without stepping through the save and quit screens.
Who it’s for: Players who leave worlds and servers often and want the exit on a single key, with no extra screens in between.
How it compares
Quit from Game Menu is also a Fabric client-side mod and is open source under the MIT License, with files for 1.19.4 – 26.3. Panic Button is open source too, under the MIT License, and covers 1.21.11 – 26.3, so it targets a newer range than InstaQuit's. Both alternatives run on the client alone, like InstaQuit.
