Adding Liroth automatically adds the Mod Menu mod of version modmenu-2.0.17.jar , which is the latest version available on CurseForge, but which is not compatible with Fabric-0.14.22.

With this mod I'm getting the client crash: latest.log
(it's the latest.log, no crash log is generated although the client effectively crashes without even opening the window)

Without this mod I'm getting the client crash: crash-2023-09-17_15.49.02-client.txt

To be able to play I replace it with the newer version modmenu-4.1.0.jar, available from Modrinth.

I'm not sure, but since the ModMenu mod is an entirely optional convenience mod for the client, it looks like this mod is included as a necessary dependency for Liroth by mistake.
If that's the case, it would be cool if it would be removed from the dependencies to not create this confusion :)

Gotcha fam

Fixed in dev build.
