What does it do?

It makes the leaves drop (or fall) instead of fading in the air.

It's fully server side.

Also adds "droppingLeaves$shouldLeavesFall" gamerule if you want to turn off the mod without restarting the server.

Does it work with other mods?

It should, but if it does not, you can always report it on Github
