Modrinth is an alternative to curseforge which is way better in a few key aspects:

• Proper filtering
  • on curseforge you can search for 1.17 mods, or fabric mods, not 1.17 fabric mods
  • it also has client/server mod filters
• Fast searches
  • It takes nanoseconds for the search results to update to what you have typed, as opposed to the 3-5 seconds curseforge does
• Easier API integration
  • Well documented, easy to use api
  • You can ask for support from actual humans

Also, Jellysquid (Lead dev of the mod you forked), prefers and recommends modrinth over curseforge
