Bug Description

I'm playing on my Mac M2 with fabric-loader-1.20.4 and I loaded Sodium 0.5.5 in my mods folder. Now i see the shader but i have always like 50 FPS and this is no improvement compared to not using Sodium.

Because this doesn't fulfil by expectation, I want to ask if someone has better FPS on a Apple M2, or how to make Sodium improve my FPS.

In the log file of Minecraft I see only this Sodium entries

[09:18:31] [main/INFO]: Loaded configuration file for Sodium: 42 options available, 0 override(s) found

Thank you for your response.
I already use arm64 Java without Rosetta. I'll ask the community ...

Just for the records, my Mac reports me

[18:47:53] [Render thread/INFO]: OpenGL Vendor: Apple
[18:47:53] [Render thread/INFO]: OpenGL Renderer: Apple M2
[18:47:53] [Render thread/INFO]: OpenGL Version: 4.1 Metal - 88

macOS is not really supported (see our hardware requirements.) Apple does not provide up-to-date graphics drivers for OpenGL, and their compatibility layer is known to have limited performance. It's mostly there to make applications render correctly, not to enable gaming.

The most important thing you can do is make sure that Minecraft isn't running through Rosetta compatibility (x86-on-ARM) since it has significant overhead.

Otherwise, I can't really advise you, as this isn't a support forum. You will have to ask the community for help.
