Minecraft's Latest Snapshot Adds Chat Reports, Which Are Safe For Building

Minecraft is a game you should play with your friends. Sometimes you will all be working together to create something incredible and other times you'll utilize mods to recreate Eldenring and other times you'll browse servers online to see what the internet offers. If you are playing online with strangers, though, sometimes things can be messy, and this appears to be the problem that the latest Minecraft snapshot is trying to address.

Chat reporting can be accessed within the social interactions screen and you'll be required to report the individual chat messages and choose the appropriate category for them too. This will stop abuse of the system. You can't create a generic report about the user. You must specify what they did. The blog states that your report will be reviewed by a moderator.
