Quicksand
by Shnupbups
Quicksand adds a sinking substance that generates in deserts and pulls players under unless they wear Leather Boots.
What it does
Quicksand generates in desert biomes. Walking into it drops the player in a way similar to Powder Snow, and a player who stays submerged starts drowning, so an escape needs to happen quickly. Wearing Leather Boots prevents the sinking.
Quicksand can be picked up with a bucket and poured into a cauldron. The mod runs on the client and the server, and it requires Fabric API. Files exist for Fabric across six game versions, 1.17 – 1.20.2, and the source code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only.

What the author says
Quicksand generates in Deserts and acts similarly to Powder Snow. You will sink into Quicksand unless wearing Leather Boots. Once you're submerged you'll start drowning in it! You'll want to escape quickly. You can pick up Quicksand in Buckets and put it in Cauldrons if you want. Dunno why you'd want to, but you can.
