NoNarrator
by Moire9
With NoNarrator installed, the Minecraft narrator never loads, so the game stops trying to reach text-to-speech libraries that are missing on many systems.
What it does
NoNarrator injects code that blocks the narrator from loading at all. Players who never turn the narrator on avoid the log spam that appears when the game cannot find its TTS libraries. The narrator settings stay visible in the options menu but have no effect, since the mod does not remove them. It is a lightweight Fabric mod with no extra dependencies, released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only as open source, with builds for 1.12 – 1.21.5.

What the author says
This mod injects code that completely prevents the narrator code from loading at all. The narrator will never be enabled, and it also prevents annoying log spam when the game can't find TTS libraries that the narrator requires. The mod is very lightweight with no dependencies, and should work on any Minecraft version…
