The Crashes of Grian
I googled "fabric crashes with falling block" and found this GitHub Issue in the Sodium Repo. Solution: install Indium, because continuity relies on it to bridge over to sodium.

Sand?
It`s Indium. https://github.com/CaffeineMC/sodium-fabric/issues/1324

Torch flames appearing through walls whenever I pick up an item
if https://github.com/CaffeineMC/sodium-fabric/issues/1006 is what you are talking about, it is an upstream issue for any forge port of the sodium mod

Does anyone know why my Minecraft looks really jagged? It looks like the anti-aliasing/anisotropic filtering is really off or something.
Wow, a reasonable criticism! According to this issue, transparency sorting hasn’t been implemented, and so the behavior is inconsistent. Surprised to see a pull request linked that had fixed it, but was never merged and is now incompatible. Definitely affects users who have farms and stained glass builds though!

Optifine making chunks/the entire world invisible?
The problem with the multithreaded version of Optifine is that OpenGL doesn't officially support multithreading (at least not with older versions of OpenGL; Sodium (for modern versions) uses a "multidraw" function to get up to 10x the FPS but also uses OpenGL 4+, and even then it has issues on many drivers. Note that using such modern features would require a "core profile", precluding the use of all legacy fixed-function methods so the entire renderer would have to be rewritten).

Help with custom enchantment book texture pack
As is often the case, you can refer to existing resource packs that have enchantment-specific textures. There is also Optifine documentation online, such as here and here.

Emissive Textures Help
i dogged a bit on optifine’s emissive properties too but it seems there is no such feature as to change the texture

Why does my turtle not connect to the disk drive?
Do you have Optifine installed? There is currently a bug with Optifine which breaks CC peripherals (and many other mods). I'd recommend removing it for the time being.

[java] 1.20 java update, cherry leaves are green, not pink?
If you use a mod that messes with rendering and is clearly marked as "Preview version", and then get a rendering issue, please look at the bugtracker of that mod yourself next time. Here is the relevant bug report: https://github.com/sp614x/optifine/issues/7410
- why are my cherry leaves yellow?
-
is the cull less leaves mod server side or client side?
found the bug report for the biome issue https://github.com/sp614x/optifine/issues/4880

custom bow model not working
There is an example for bow stuff in the CIT documentation here: https://github.com/sp614x/optifine/blob/master/OptiFineDoc/doc/cit_single.properties (Use Ctrl+F to find "bow", then look for the example with the models)
