MuteIt
by pivosos2007
MuteIt lets players hide unwanted chat HUD messages and the scoreboard on the Fabric client, using custom keyword filters and a toggle key.
What it does
A player lists blocked words or phrases, and any chat HUD message containing one of them is filtered from view. Filtering can also cover messages the player sends, so outgoing text can be screened as well. The scoreboard can be hidden with a default key, and the B key toggles its visibility. The whole mod can be switched off without removing it.
Settings are handled by the MidnightLib configuration screen, which is reached through Mod Menu. The options are saved in a separate JSON config file. The interface is available in English and Russian. MuteIt is client-side only, so a server does not need it and players on a server that does not run it can still use it.
MuteIt requires Fabric API and MidnightLib. Mod Menu is optional and is only needed to open the settings screen from the game menu. The mod is released under the Apache License 2.0, and it is not open source in the sense of publishing a public repository, but the license terms are open. Files are published for Fabric only, with 1.0 for 1.21.8 as the latest file on the beta channel.
