Configurable client-side chat filtering
About this Mod
Fokuso
A Fabric Minecraft (1.20.1) mod for client-side chat filtering using a filter list system to remove spam in chat which is sent on third party servers.
You can add filters with files containing regex patterns, or even implement a ChatFilter with your own code.
Commands
/chatfilters list
Lists all currently loaded filter lists and how many of their filters are enabled.
/chatfilters reload
Loads filter lists from config folder
/chatfilters toggle <list> <enabled>
Enable or disable a specific filter list.
Regex filter list files
Filter lists can be added by adding files to the fokuso config folder with the .filters file extension.
Each line is a different regex pattern.
Empty lines and comments (lines starting with #) are ignored.
It's possible to use several shortcuts in the regex filters, e.g. \u for usernames.
| Shortcut character | Meaning |
|---|---|
| p | Username prefix |
| u | Username |
# Simple filter to remove all messages regarding achieved achievements.
\u has made the advancement \[.*?]
If you create any filter lists that might be useful to others, please share them, so that they can be added to this
page.
Usage
This is intended as a simple tool to hide chat messages when it's not possible or desirable to alter the source.

to remove chat spam from other mods.

Fokuso server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is Fokuso compatible with fabric?
Fokuso officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.20, 1.18.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Fokuso – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Fokuso consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
