No Chat Restrictions
by Aizistral
With No Chat Restrictions installed, a player can reach the multiplayer menu and in-game chat even when the Minecraft account has been flagged.
What it does
Since 1.16.4, the vanilla client can block access to the online menus and chat depending on flags attached to an account by Mojang or Microsoft. The mod reverts that check, so the same features open as they did before the change. The restriction is enforced only on the client, so the mod needs to be present only on the client side.
The mod is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 36 release versions, 1.16.4 – 26.3, and requires Fabric API on Fabric. Files for every listed version are available, so a player can pick a build for the game version in use. The code is public, and the project is released under the WTFPL, which is not an open source license.

Multiplayer menu unblocked

Client-only install
