Sodium

What Sodium is
Sodium is a free Minecraft mod for client-side frame-rate performance. It is listed for Linux, macOS, and Windows and uses a multi-loader setup. Its stated scope is the Minecraft client; dedicated server support is not available. The listed Minecraft versions are 26.3, 26.2, 26.1.2, 1.21.11, and 1.21.1, so check that list against the version you play before choosing it. Sodium does not require Sodium as a prerequisite. The project is available through Modrinth, and its pricing details list a free plan. For players seeking a client mod with a frame-rate focus, the main points are its supported desktop systems, multi-loader designation, version coverage, and lack of dedicated server support. The facts describe a specific performance role rather than a server-side tool.
Who it suits
Sodium suits Minecraft players on Linux, macOS, or Windows who want a client-side mod focused on frame rate. It is not suited to dedicated server use.
