NotReally
by lyuwenzhang
NotReally is a Fabric Cursed mod that deliberately lowers Minecraft's frame rate and adds micro-stutter, graphical glitches and extra memory use.
What it does
Installed on the client, the mod works against performance: according to its author, it reduces frame rates, causes micro-stutter and introduces visual artifacts. It can also raise memory use and add bugs. Its purpose is to make the game run worse, so players who want smooth gameplay should leave it out. It works on either side, and neither needs it. Files target 26.2 only, from version 1.0.0 published on 2026-08-01, under the MIT License, which is not an open source license.
Key features

Micro-stutter
Adds small hitches in frame timing, so motion appears uneven even when the average frame rate looks stable.
Graphical glitches
Introduces visual issues across the game's graphics, which can distort what players see on screen.
