Oh wait, are you using Intellij or Eclipse?

Do you see that window though?

From the command like you wouldsimply not include the --offline flag, but for intellij you have to make sure the cross ( + ) icon in the Gradle window isn't selected. Selected: Not Selected:

Just run the installer, don't extract anything.

You appear to be running Gradle in offline mode without running it in online mode at least once to actually get what it needs.

Forge does a lot more than Paper, even without other mods installed the hooks are still there. and we typically don't accept performance reports without results from a profiler because we don't trust Mojang's debug screen.

Look again and look closer

Are you doing anything inventory related?

Known issue with Apple Silicon devices, they changed the graphics API and GLFW evidently wasn't given time to switch over, so now we wait for either Apple to add backwards compatibility, or for GLFW, LWJGL, and Mojang to accommodate the change in sequence.

The optional fields in mods.toml can't be left empty, either give a valid value or comment it out. (We should probably look into making a clearer error screen, or just accept empty as null)

Forge is not cross-version compatible, and the installer doesn't give you any other option anyway.

This isn't something that stops you from playing the game, it just means Forge can't get the signature of the mod files (to most users this will mean nothing). As for updating the JDK, unless you explicitly tell the Minecraft launcher to use a specific java version it will use the version that Mojang ships with the launcher, which is an absolutely ANCIENT version due to issues with Intel iGPUs

Please provide debug.log from both his client and the server(more info on where it is and how to provide it in my signature below, just expand the spoiler)

We don't keep track of places that support old versions, sorry.
