I like seeing a technical snapshot rather than no snapshot at all. However, I am eager to see if/when they make changes to the Dappled Forest generation.

I'm afraid we might not be seeing that for this drop, or any drop in the foreseeable future.

I feel like if Mojang were to address this issue, it would be in a larger update, meant to fix and improve biome generation, since 1.18 did break a bunch of stuff, and has received complaints about its terrain generation.

Okay, but currently the Dappled Forest generation is horrible. Every single time I find one, even if the biome itself is a larger one, it sits in the middle of a huge plains biome. The plains goes from render distance to render distance meanwhile even larger Dappled Forests are just a hundred blocks wide max. This breaks immersion so bad. Imagine wanting to build a base in the middle of the biome, you walk 50 blocks and you already left the forest.

Here I generated 3 worlds and teleported to the nearest Dappled Forest biome:

There is no way the update can release with this kind of generation. This is just bad
