    MiniMOTD is a plugin/mod for Minecraft servers and proxies that allows you to customize the server list MOTD (Message of the Day). It supports RGB colors and gradients using the MiniMessage formatting standard.

    Key features include:

    • Automatic Downsampling: RGB colors are automatically downsampled for older Minecraft clients that do not support them.
    • RGB Compatibility: RGB colors can only be sent by proxies or 1.16+ servers and are only visible to 1.16+ clients.
