Note the incompatibility with Fastcraft's bufferTextureUpdates on some device, I tested on two devices, only one has this issue.
I am guessing it's a lack of some opengl extension support or something, an alternate solution is to use Zink as the renderer but that affect fps significantly.
I ain't quite sure how I should phrase it on the page, or should I even mention Zink, or do I include the instruction to edit the file to disable it?
The instruction involves starting up android built-in file manager somehow (usually by nav to android/data on the default file manager which should prompt the user to open the built-in file manager due to android security restrictions) or using a file manager that support SAF and opening up pojavlauncher folder, nav into the custom-instances, opening the specific instance, locating the config, editing it with an editor that supports SAF and hope the user doesn't accidentally invalid the ini file.

- [OptiFine](https://optifine.net/home) (**Render Regions don't work**, everything else does) - Big note here. The only supported shaders are [Open4ES](https://www.mediafire.com/folder/cp87zpb3ichj7/Open4ES) for GL4ES. It works best with Adreno graphics (found in Qualcomm Snapdragon SoCs) and PowerVR graphics, with required patches (found in several low-end MediaTek SoCs). Mali GPUs are not supported. Below is a list of smartphones that are tested and works with Open4ES:
- **Xiaomi Poco F3** (Snapdragon 870)
