       # Introduction
       
       This text is some kind of personal notes I save here, but it may be
       useful for some people.  Don't expect high quality writing here 😀.
       
       # Modding
       
       Minecraft is quite slow and unoptimized, fortunately using the mod
       "Sodium", you get access to more advanced video settings that allow to
       reduce the computer power usage, or just make the game playable for
       older computers.

       This requires PolyMC, a launcher for Minecraft which takes care of mods
       and other things.  PolyMC is available on Linux and Windows.

       # Setup
       
       In PolyMC:
       
       * create a new instance
       * pick your the minecraft version you want
       * below the minecraft versions, in "mod loader", choose "Fabric" and
       choose the version you want (the one with the star is recommended)
       * Press Ok
       * Modify the instance and choose Mods tab / right click on it to see
       the mods
       * Click on "Download mods"
       * Search "Sodium" in the list and click on it
       * Click on "Add mod for download"
       * Press OK
       * Close
       
       Now, your Minecraft is using the Sodium mod, this allows greater choice
       within the "Video settings" like the Performance tab with more options.
