I have about version 1.16.5.

1 - How long are you planning to continue doing backports for 1.16.5 ?
2 - Even though new versions go too far, would you continue doing backports for 1.16.5 ?

As the new versions over 1.16.5 filtered players that use potato pc, i recommend you to show some special interest for 1.16.5 version.

Most of the bugs that exist in 1.16.5 are solved in 1.18.2 so I'll backport it once. But I'll stop supporting 1.16.5 as the Minecraft version goes up.
