Either all of us with Intel laptops just buy new computers, or those who have PCs run without shaders. Honestly, shaders add very little because so many of us don't have the money/know-how to buy/make PCs. If everyone can run the game just fine, why add a new level detail that only separates the community in half?

Which is what this topic is for.
To solve the problem without removing or forcing shaders.
But I'm guessing you neglected to actually read it.

Rain and snow only look pretty.
Music is only to make the server sound nice.
What about the rest of the stuff I listed?

Because the people who "have the money/know-how to buy/make PCs" get an extra benefit of a more "beautiful" or graphically updated Blockland, the one's who dont like you said just run it without shaders. People who don't have shaders can still play the game fine and have access to all of its features (besides shaders), I don't see a separation.
