The fact I'm playing this at 20 FPS on Firefox with a RX 7600 shows how much web browsers have regressed in 10 years, not how much they've advanced.

Vanilla Minecraft is known for being awful for FPS even outside of a browser. There's a reason most people use a whole slate of performance mods just to get actual decent performance.

(I've got a Ryzen 7 with a 3080 and it would frequently hover between 40-50fps even with graphics turned down. Install the performance mods and I can get >120fps with fancy graphics and shaders.)

A longstanding performance effecting bug was fixed in the recently released 1.21.5 and the difference is night and day at least for vanilla clients.

This one: https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC/issues/MC-170134

I now never see below 60 fps when for all my years of playing this bug would bring down my FPS to the teens or 0 all the time no matter what hardware.

Good to know that they're finally considering performance fixes but obviously involves moving to 1.21.5 and until there's mods to disable the bits I don't like, I'll be sticking with 1.20+mods.
