Is the farm at build height, above the nether ceiling? If you don't do that, spawns below the farm will still occur and mess with your spawn rates. Also, which biome are you in, different mobs spawn in different biomes.
I recently upgraded my graphics card. I was hoping to try out some shaders and/or texture packs. However I am very unfamiliar with this process. I had installed Forge(?) to use one mod (to help with building a witherskull farm) a while back. Thats all the experience I have, otherwise I usually only play plain vanilla Minecraft. So, could anyone explain the process of applying shaders and texture packs, and maybe recommend some favorites??
I was just scrolling through the survival forum looking at posts with 0-1 replies to see if there were any posts that never received the help they wanted, normally would just skip over this one, but i was curious, ive only ever seen one jungle temple a while back, and wasnt sure if they were still in 1.17+
With out pictures its hard to tell. I've done a version of this farm a long time ago, but have moved on to smaller quicker farms (that are virtually just as effective) Wattles has a really small compact iron farm I recommend. When I ran into a similar issue it was with the spacing above their head. I had put a slab above them but they didnt have enough space to stand on their beds, so raising the 'ceiling' up another half block did the trick.
Farmer villagers don't really harvest quickly. If you're doing this for the carrots there are micro farms that are a lot quicker (but require bonemeal, and user input). The villagers usually throw food (carrots, wheat, bread) at other villagers in order to breed. I'm not certain if they have a item cap or not, but they dont just see grow crops and harvest them. If you REALLY want this to be a carrot farm run by villagers, there is a diamond shaped farm tutorial (technically a villager breeder) where you can put a hopper under the breeding villager, and it will collect a bunch of extra crops that the farming villager tosses. Honestly though, the most efficient/resource friendly version is just plant rows and rows and collect them yourself.
Are you below y=40? In a slime spawn chunk light level doesnt matter, but you do have to be below y=40. Usually people light them up still to eliminate other mobs spawning.
Is your spawn area at least 3 blocks high?
(As the other reply mentioned) Have you blocked spawns around the farm? If you have caves near by, other mobs could be taking up the spawns instead of slimes.
are you AFKing at least 24 blocks away from the slime farm? Mobs wont spawn within 24 blocks of you. So if you stand too close they wont spawn.
Just a few thoughts off the top of my head, let me know if any of that works. or doesnt.
Recently I completed a Gold/XP farm above the nether roof at build height. Its the magma cube rings farm, if you're familiar with it. Anyway, I've built it before in 1.16 and it worked great. I built it again in 1.17 and worked great. Then after a week it stopped working so well, it just wasn't spawning as many zombified piglins. I asked my buddy, who I share the server with, and he said he died several times in the regular nether below. My guess is that he dropped some items that were picked up, and I know mobs that are holding items dont despawn... Could that be the issue? Or could it be something else? I figured we might have to find and kill any mobs that picked up his items, but he had no idea where they might be. He ended up using command codes to just insta-kill all mobs in the nether, but that didn't seem to work. Any suggestions?

Hello friends,
Recently I completed a Gold/XP farm above the nether roof at build height. Its the magma cube rings farm, if you're familiar with it. Anyway, I've built it before in 1.16 and it worked great.
