Boring Spawn Chunks
Boring Spawn Chunks is a mod that backports the spawnChunkRadius
game rule from Minecraft 1.20.5.
It not only does that, but also backports the default value so that spawn chunks occupies a 3x3 area instead of a 19x19 one and also backports the visual changes to the world loading screen so that the classic square also dynamically changes size depending of the setting!
If the complete removal of spawn chunks is desired, a default game rule changer (like the sibling mod Boring Default Game Rules) is needed in order to set the default value to 0. This approach will continue working even with Minecraft 1.20.5's game rule after all!
