ResizeableSubtitles
by Nikrecs
ResizeableSubtitles lets players resize, move and fade the subtitles that Minecraft shows for sounds, with a live preview while they adjust.
What it does
Subtitles can be scaled from 50% to 300% and their opacity set between 20% and 100%. A dedicated settings screen lets players drag the subtitle block anywhere on the screen, and a preview of three lines shows the result at the chosen scale before anything is saved.
Auto-alignment pins the block to the right, center or left edge and keeps enlarged subtitles from being clipped off screen. Manual placement can be switched off for a fixed layout. Free placement uses horizontal and vertical offsets. The line layout is either Separated, which stacks lines in scaled boxes so they do not overlap and allows line spacing from 100% to 200%, or Compact, which keeps the vanilla fixed 10px step and ignores spacing.
The settings screen opens from the mod list, from a config button in Mod Menu on Fabric, or with the resizeablesubtitles command or a bindable hotkey. The mod requires Architectury API on every loader, and Mod Menu is needed only for the Fabric config button. It is client-side only, so servers need no installation and it works in singleplayer and multiplayer.
Key features

A three-line preview shows the scaled subtitles as they will appear, so tweaks can be checked before leaving the screen.

Subtitles pin to the right, center or left edge, and enlarged text stays inside the screen.
Separated line layout
Lines are stacked in scaled line boxes so they do not overlap, with line spacing from 100% to 200%.

How it compares
Chat Resizer is client-side only under the MIT License and is not open source, with files for 1.21.11 – 26.2, while ResizeableSubtitles covers 1.19.2 – 26.3. Elite Holograms is server-side only and open source under the MIT License for 1.19.2 – 26.2, so it adds holograms on the server rather than changing subtitles on the client.
