V Sync is the only way to eliminate screen tearing, and only when the frame rate is allowed to match the monitor refresh rate. Whenever they're not in sync the monitor ends up drawing partial frames. Also when possible you should game on a monitor and GPU that supports G-Sync or FreeSync, Regular V-Sync is outdated tech and can cause input lag so is not recommended.

Also not sure why you made this a topic about anti-aliasing,

AA has nothing to do with tearing unless it is causing your frame rate to drop below your monitors configured refresh rate.

And if you use an Nvidia GPU you can try FXAA, because this is the most efficient AA method as you won't lose much performance by doing this.

Do you have Vsync enabled and/or what are your framerate settings at? The purpose of Vsync is to synchronize the game's frame rate to the monitor's refresh rate, otherwise you get screen tearing which can manifest as the appearance of stuttering when they are close together (e.g. 70 FPS and 60 Hz refresh rate = 10 Hz beat frequency. I see this exact thing happen myself in 1.6.4).

Also, be aware that you should never run two different versions in the same game directory - always run each version in its own directory (also create a separate profile for each one) - otherwise they try to read settings from options.txt that may either not exist or be invalid, with little in the way of validation, at least in older versions (the game can even crash); they may also be reset, thus you have Vsync enabled in 1.13+ but not 1.8.9.

Also, what do you mean by "anti-aliasing"? Do you mean lines between blocks, a common side-effect of anti-aliasing? If so, you need to disable it in your GPU control panel (see link).

Yeah, #chaircat. Enough said.

While imitation is the highest form of flattery, I would suggest if you were to try something like that try to be different otherwise you would just become the "poor mans" Hermitcraft and I would think struggle for viewers.
