Better Chat Hide
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.




This mod ensures that your chat remains hidden unless you manually open it, and only functions when the mod is toggled.
I found this mod convienent for streaming, as it removes the hassle of having to go into Options > Chat Settings and manually toggle the chat on and off whenever I need it. It's also really convenient for clipping footage for montages, preventing the chat from ruining the clip! CREDS-TO-GUFL
