I was going to go with wisehosting.com after Mumbo Jumbo promoted them with an ad in one of his videos but apparently they’re in Estonia and my bank doesnt do business with that country.
I’ve never had a server in MC before, primarily playing solo but have been going on my friend’s realm the past couple months and really enjoying it. My complaint mainly is that realms limits render distance to like 16 or so and I’d like to crank it up to 32 as long as client side lag isn’t too bad, and I’ve been told servers don’t have the same cap on render distance as realms. We do like to build largeish amateur xp farms and regular redstone contraptions but shouldn’t need something huge that can run Minecraft-in-Minecraft or anything like that.
So yeah, nothing fancy, no mods. Maybe 10 total players most we’ve ever had online at once was 5. What options are popular and known, inexpensive and reasonably reliable? Figured I’d ask on here rather than troll through old redd*t threads looking for people promoting server hosting. Thanks!
Check out these options. https://mcd.loudbook.dev/creating-a-server/paid-online-hosts
Modrinth just started their server network, it is very new, so I’m not quite sure on reliability. The company itself is open-source and seems quite good, they have made a great mod platform in recent years.
logicservers is what I use. Heard it from a Xisumavoid video. It’s fine. But they use a super outdated version of a proprietary web ui to manage the minecraft server specifically. But it does work and they provide the files over FTP for editing configs, uploading mods, making backups etc.
