why does my fsg run take a whole month to be verified? btw still isn't

are render distance strats allowed? so changing the render distance to very low to freeze mobs in near chunks or will that be counted as glitches?

When I submit a run, I can't select fabric by 'mods'. I use phosphor, lithium and sodium through fabric. Should I say it's jellysquid and what does that mean?

since you can no longer use optifine in 1.16, is there any other allowed mod? or can I zoom with fabric, lithium, phosphor, sodium?
