Can we get rid of f1 spam in general, have some kind of cooldown / spam protection for stuff like starting a ghost / demo, also tiles like solo. Ghost/demo are the worst offenders

I think most people probably use F1 as a chat history, rather than actually using the show chat bind to do so.
Since f1 has a dark background to make text easier to read, and u can actually scroll up.(edited)

But some players (who has "vanilla only skins" checked) reported that they got "default" skin for everyone. This is explainable but the question is if I can workaround that on the server side or not.

it says eur for me now but i'm pretty sure it said na earlier
If not then the question is "is there a way for the client to expose its settings/capabilities to the server" and if the protocol supports some "client capabilities" then whether a PR with such cap exposed to the server would be acceptable?(edited)
Why would you need that? Just force those skins. You can re-build it on the server and if someone has a vanilla skin just send the prefix_name version of it

Ah, I think the pr u sent was misleading, if someone has vanilla skins only on, he cant see other skins than vanilla, thats to be expected and cant/shouldnt be changed

Server has no influence on that, also, one could remove all skins other than vanilla skins to achive the same
I have a check on the server side. Like: if the player character meets some condition, then { if version >= 11031 the skin is 'santa_bluekitty'; else : 'bluekitty' }.

If the client wants vanilla skins, then I want to set e.g. 'bluekitty'. But if the client OK with other skins, then 'santa_bluekitty' is highly preferable.
You could let a vote pop up for each joining player asking to use customized skins or vanilla ones, F3 and F4 can be pressed then to choose

I am struggling with a similar Problem, i need to know if the Client uses dynamic camera, in order to calculate zoomed-out cursor positions correctly. Currently I need chat command for that too :/

Hmmm. I just realized that I also can add custom votes. E.g. I can add a vote "toggle custom skins" to the vote list. If the client sends such vote start, then I can toggle the skins and ignore the vote.
The same for the language and many other chat commands.
