Server crash because betterquesting is a client side only mod

[Sv443]

I'm using Forge 47.2.23 and MC 1.20.1 and version 4.0.0_preview_2 and 3 of your mod had the same crash.
To my understanding this is because forge doesn't recognize the mod as a client-side mod? Because when I remove it from the server, I am unable to join with my client because it tells me the server is missing the betterquesting mod.

[omegadmm]

I can validate the issue. Sadly I got no workaround.

[Terogamer]

I have this very same issue. I don't have a workaround/fix either. :(
