PlayerNotes
by LucasEDVK
PlayerNotes lets a player keep private notes about other players, with the notes shown in the tablist and above name tags.
What it does
Notes are created and managed with commands, and the entries they produce include clickable actions. A personal note can also be created for the player's own username. When a noted player changes their name, the previous name is shown in parentheses so the note still points to the right person.
Noted players can be highlighted in the tablist and given a prefix above their name tag. Both the prefix and the tablist ordering that places noted players first can be turned on or off in the config. The mod is listed as client-side only, so a server does not need it, and it requires Fabric API on Fabric. Mod Menu is optional, and MidnightLib is bundled inside the jar. Files are published for Fabric alone, across six release versions 1.21.11 – 26.3, under a custom license that is not open source.

Use cases
Tracking regular players
Players who meet the same people on a server can record a short note and see that player first in the tablist.
Personal self-notes
A note can be attached to the player's own username, which suits keeping a personal reminder list.
Who it’s for: Players who want to remember other players on multiplayer servers. The mod is a client mod, so the server runs without it.
