you shouldn’t use optifine anymore sodium on its own is better but then there’s some other mods like lithium which make it even better it doesn’t have any of the graphical features like shaders or ctm or random entity textures but there’s other fabric/quilt mods that add those to like iris for shaders even further optifine slightly changes how the game does things breaking certain technical minecraft things while these more modern mods perform way better than optifine they also don’t break anything like optifine unless you’re on an old version where these mods don’t exist there’s no reason to use optifine anymore
