About this project
What does faun - chat & privacy options add?

unblock chat, disable telemetry, and more. make your account yours!

can't decide between restriction lifting mods? check out our comparison!
how it works
when starting up the game, minecraft gets some information about what privileges your account has. this is what controls various account features such as whether you can see chat. this mod simply changes those values to whatever you want! for more information, see the documentation!
configuration
this mod creates a faun.properties file which can be used to make local changes to your account's safety settings. simply put true/false next to the values you want to change.
for more information, check out the config help or our flags guide!
users may want to configure these settings:
- chat allowed — bypasses account chat restrictions
- telemetry enabled — disable all minecraft telemetry
developers may want to use these settings for debugging:
- servers allowed — can be disabled (cannot bypass bans)
- profanity filter enabled — enables use of
text-filtering-config
