Incompatible	Mod is incompatible with some mods.
Buggy	Mod is buggy.
Reverse Features	Mod takes away features for sake of performance or bugfixes.
Configuration Needed	Mod needs to be configured to act at its best.

2	Low to medium chance to affect user
3	Medium chance to affect user
4	Medium to high chance to affect user
5	High chance to affect user

Extra Information

You might find some superscripted numbers around the repository. These are used to tell extra information about the mods that labels and danger levels do not apply to.  

¹ The mod should work if Mixin-0-7-0-8-Compatibility is applied.

² Cull Particles isn't needed anymore in newer Forge versions, as it was implemented in Forge.

³ Do not blame me if you didn't read this notice. If you try to load a older world in a newer instance of the game, and you have one of these mods installed, bad things will happen, make sure to uninstall the mod first.

⁴ Some of the mods that have Sodium as an incompatibility, might work if you use Indium.

⁵ AI Improvements newer versions (1.14+) don't have as much impact as the older versions have, since in newer versions of Minecraft, a lot of fixes to the AI are implemented ([Sources: Curseforge page FAQ, Dev]).

⁶ Halogen has issues with Forge's ExplosionEvent, see sodium-forge#33.

⁷ These mods also work on 1.17.x , despite having only 1.16 and 1.18 releases in curseforge, no workarounds needed. Install them like any other mods and your fabric loader won't complain about missing dependencies.
