What is SodiumX?

SodiumX is a lightweight performance pack designed to only include what you actually need and not a variety of mods that can't even be used outside of single player or on very specific servers like other packs in the category often do. This pack gives you the baseline and if you feel so inclined you can use Modrinth's unlink pack feature or simply drag mods into your mods folder to add those specific mods to your preferred perference.
