TablistPlus
TablistPlus lets players pin chosen names to the top of the Tab player list, with color tags for roles such as Friend, Ally or Enemy.
What it does
Pinned players always sit above everyone else in the tab list, even on servers with more than 100 players. Each pin can carry a color tag, and custom tags with their own colors can be defined. Pins for an offline player stay visible with a placeholder, so the list keeps the same order when a friend logs off. Holding Tab opens inline management, and a draggable panel can be moved anywhere on screen.
Pin lists are stored per server, so an SMP list never mixes with another server's entries. Lists can be exported and imported to share them between machines. The mod is client-side only: the server and other players do not need it, and it requires Fabric API on Fabric. Builds exist for 16 release versions, 1.21 – 26.2, with 1.0.0+mc26.x for 26.2 as the latest file. The code is released under the MIT License but is not open source.

Use cases
Finding a group on a large server
On a server with dozens of names, a player can pin a few friends and find them without scanning the whole list.
Who it’s for: Players who join multiplayer servers with large player counts, and players who keep a small group of friends or allies in view across several servers.
How it compares
Online Friends is a Fabric client mod for 1.21.4 under the Apache License 2.0, and it is not open source. Chat in Color is client-side only, open source under the Apache License 2.0 and covers 1.21 – 1.21.8. Offline Players is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later, but it is server required with optional client support and covers 1.20.1 – 1.21.1.
