## Why?
ViaFabricPlus is supposed to be an alternative to [multiconnect](https://github.com/Earthcomputer/multiconnect) that offers more compactness and more clientside improvements,
as ViaFabricPlus implements all Via platforms (ViaVersion, ViaBackwards, ViaLegacy, ViaAprilFools, ViaBedrock) and adds tons of clientside fixes and QoL improvements like old rendering for all platforms.
