OptTux (Optimized + Tux) is a modpack specifically made for gamers who want to play with useful vanilla extending mods that work on vanilla servers, but also optimize for users on older or lower-end computers.
This project is a work in progress. I'm also working on optimizing it for Linux computers running Wayland, and NVIDIA-based (with proprietary drivers) Linux computers.
Currently, I only tested it on my Thinkpad T15 Gen 1 and Acer Chromebook 314 (running Arch Linux), but it should technically work on most of the computers.
