What Embeddium is
Embeddium is a free Minecraft mod for client-side rendering performance. It uses a multi-loader setup and does not require Sodium. It supports Minecraft 1.16.5, 1.18.2, 1.19.2, versions 1.20.1 through 1.20.6, versions 1.21 through 1.21.1, and 1.21.4. Its scope is the game client, not dedicated servers, so the supported game version and client use are key points to check before installing. Embeddium’s focus is rendering performance rather than server operation. The project is available through Modrinth with a free plan. Players using one of the listed Minecraft versions can consider it when they want a client-side rendering mod that does not depend on Sodium. It is not intended to provide dedicated server support.
