ServerPlayertimeTicker
ServerPlayertimeTicker counts how long each player has been on a Fabric server and can kick players who go past a set daily limit.
What it does
The mod tracks the playtime of every player on the server and resets the count each day. When a player reaches the configured maximum, the mod removes them from the server. A hotbar message can warn the player beforehand, and the limit, the message and other settings are read from a configuration file. Configuration changes are synced almost in real time, so a running server adjusts without a restart.
Server owners who want to exempt particular players can grant them the playtime.immune permission through LuckPerms, which is a required dependency and must be installed alongside the mod. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, and the latest file is 1.6.3 for 1.20.1. The mod is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, and it is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license, which means it is not open source. Its source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features

Every player's time on the server is counted automatically, with no command needed to start the timer.

Configurable settings
The limit, the hotbar warning and other options are set in a configuration file.

Use cases
Limiting session length
Server owners can cap how long each player stays online per day, for communities that want fixed play sessions.
Exempting staff and supporters
Trusted players can be given the playtime.immune permission in LuckPerms so the limit never applies to them.
Who it’s for: Server owners running Fabric servers for 1.19.2 or 1.20.1 who want to cap daily playtime. Players only need to join the server; they do not install the mod.
How it compares
Playtime Logger is server-side only, open source under the MIT License, and published for 1.20.1, but it records playtime rather than enforcing a limit. PlayerTimeLimit is also server-side only and for 1.20.1, and is covered by All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Play Time Tracker is server-side only and open source under the Apache License 2.0, with a file for 1.21 only.
