New Mandela effect just dropped.
No, I always remember it being a forge mod, since the 1.15 days at least. Not sure what to tell you. Maybe they discussed Fabric but went with Forge in the early stages? Maybe you’re thinking of being frustrated with it not being a Fabric mod and having to install Forge? Maybe you’re thinking of another mod entirely?
Cool! I think whether or not this works will vary from case to case, but I’m glad you got it working.
