About this Mod
Stop Doxxing My Ip Minecraft
Just a simple server side mod that adds a mixin to hide your IP when joining a server with this mod installed.
Why making this?
In this day and age where your IP is open in the wild (in logging or whatever) could be used maliciously by the wrong people.
This is more a privacy feature in the server logging to prevent you from being doxxed and that's it. I feel personally this should've been done a long while ago as server admins don't need to know a players IP address when joining a server
This is a very niche of a mod. I know many won't care for this mod as it's only meant for server owners who kinda care about people's privacy.
This is already a thing for servers
Yes, you're right. 1.20.2 and beyond already have this option called log-ips in the server.properties file (which, I kinda forgot until someone I knew brought it up again), though would people actually enable this one setting manually? I highly doubt that + mine looks prettier compared to vanilla's approach. But yea, for 1.20.2 and beyond it's not really needed I would say unless you like my style over vanilla's.
Why not use a VPN? Or other solutions?
Yes, a VPN should be sufficient tho it could make your connection worse when playing.
Yes an IP could be dynamic so a user's IP is not always the same. However, it still could be used to doxx you by the wrong people.
Will it have X feature?
It could, however that's not really the main purpose of this mod as it's meant to be used for server owners and not clients. I could consider making a privacy focused mod however I wouldn't really focus on that until this gains traction and such.

sdmim 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 (1.20.6). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is sdmim compatible with fabric and forge and neoforge?
sdmim officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge for Minecraft 1.20.6, 1.20.4, 1.20.3. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with sdmim – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if sdmim 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.
