MixinTweaks
MixinTweaks is a Fabric client mod that switches off a few small annoyances in Minecraft through mixins, and each change can be toggled off in its settings.
What it does
The mod targets everyday friction in the game. Its mixins hook into existing code, so the changes apply without replacing any game files. A player can hide the reverse third person view that cycles through when pressing F5, and can stop the tooltip of a held item from showing when switching hotbar slots. Each of these changes is a separate option, so players keep the parts they want and disable the rest.
The mod is a client-side only install: the server does not need it, and players join servers without adding anything. It requires Fabric API and Mod Menu on Fabric, and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) for its settings screen. Files target 26.1 – 26.2, with 0.1.0 for 26.2 as the latest build, released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the code is open source.
Key features
Reverse third person toggle
The F5 key can be prevented from cycling into the reverse third person view, so only the first and normal third person views remain.
Held item tooltip hiding
Switching hotbar slots stops showing the name tooltip of the held item when this option is enabled.
Individual toggles
Each annoyance has its own switch in the settings screen, and every change stays off until the player enables it.
Mixin-based changes
The modifications hook into the game code at runtime, leaving vanilla assets and resource packs untouched.

Use cases
Cleaner hotbar switching
A player who finds the held item's tooltip distracting while cycling slots can disable it and keep the hotbar clear.
Fixed camera cycling
Players who press F5 often and never use the reverse view can remove that step from the cycle.
Who it’s for: Players on Fabric who want a few small quality-of-life options and prefer to toggle each one separately. Server owners do not need to install it.
