Snapshot 24w37a has been released and it brings some neat tweaks and bug fixes!

Ender pearls now load chunks, which makes cross-dimension travel much more reliable! (plus easier chunk loading with stasis chambers 👀)

Also, one of the most (in)famous #Minecraft bugs, MC-119369, has been fixed: Boats crashing and breaking into sticks and planks when falling certain heights.

Crazy that the plank/stick drop was somehow still in the code of the game. They haven't dropped that in what, 9 years?
The changes to ender pearls are exciting. I'm sure the technical community will find a way to make a worldwide teleporter network.
