Purge Chat Rectangle
Removes the translucent chat rectangles when typing or viewing chat messages

but I haven't been able to test all of them myself. Open an issue if
your version isn't supported!

Does Purge Chat Rectangle need to be installed on the Minecraft server?
No. Modrinth marks Purge Chat Rectangle as unsupported on the server side. Install it only in your local Minecraft mods folder. Your server can remain unchanged unless the mod page lists an additional dependency.
Which version and loader does Purge Chat Rectangle require?
Use a file for fabric and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 26.2, 26.1.2, 26.1.1. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.
Purge Chat Rectangle is not working – what should I check?
First check the Minecraft version, loader version and required dependencies. Put the .jar file in your local .minecraft/mods folder and remove older duplicates. Because this mod is client-side, adding server RAM will not fix it.
