I think most people, myself included, bundle their datapacks with modloaders as its a quality of life thing that just makes installing datapacks so much easier on modded clients like CurseForge and Modrinth. All my datapacks are bundled as mods and published here as mods. Now that I am focusing on 1.21+, most of these packs will never get a true modded version to support older versions. It would be great if there a way to port mod content uploads to datapacks or visa-versa where they are listed on both the mods and datapack categories and including the publication options of both. This is something Modrinth does and is very beneficial as everything is in one place without needing to reupload under different paths.
