Announcing Lodestone, a FOSS self-hosted Minecraft server management tool
Looks cool. Any plans on supporting proxies such as BungeeCord or Waterfall?
-
Running Minecraft servers from Docker
So in this post we've created a Vanilla server, maintained and managed through docker. I highly recommend reading through the docs for this image as there's tons of configuration available, including support for modded servers. You can add more servers to this config and use something like BungieCord or PaperMC Waterfall switch servers ingame.

Reverse Proxying
To explain the differences between the proxies, BungeeCord is the original proxy, Waterfall is "BungeeCord fork that aims to improve performance and stability" and Velocity is "The modern, next-generation Minecraft server proxy".

Is there anyway to make a big Minecraft server?
Look into hosting it. If you have extremely good hardware, do self hosting. Or if you don't and rather want to pay, use third party hosting sites. nitrado or g-portal can handle the loads most likely. You will also want to spilt the servers into multiple servers, and hook them up using BungeeCord/Waterfall or Velocity

Help/Guidance on Building Server - NOT Advertising
I would always say that if you want to stick to plugins, always go for Paper. It's much faster than spigot (and here's the reason why), open source, and fixes bugs and exploits that spigot or upstream vanilla won't fix. It's a fork of Spigot, so you get all the features of spigot, and the lag reduction is really good on paper. I would recommend using Bungeecord or Waterfall as the proxy (which is a speical server software that allows players to hop between servers without having to join and quit. if you have played on network servers like hypixel, they use proxies, but it's on a more massive and complex scale), and use Paper or Tuinity as the backend servers (the actual servers you'll play on). Have the lobby server set as the default server, and either use 8 different servers or use 2-4 different servers with Multiverse and create 2-4 different worlds on within the servers.

Advise me about my rather ambitious server setup !
Nah, look.

Is locally hosting a good idea?
You can convert the server on MineHut to a Waterfall server that redirects all incoming players to your self-hosted server.

Atrociously High Ping Issues
One thing I have been meaning to look into is a fork of BungeeCord called Waterfall. You could try that.

Is it possible to have two worlds on a server. One with mods and the other without. ( Please read to understand )
You need 2 servers running to achieve this but you make it appear as one if you use something like Waterfall.

purpur or paper
Purpur includes Airplane, when is great for lag because it dynamically limits how much entities "think" or make decisions based on how far they are from players through a feature called D.E.A.R. Regardless of the choice you make, here is a great guide with a bunch of config changes which greatly improves server performance (and explains what each one does)! Wish you all the best with your server!

TPS on my server is low
Try using this guide and also use a paper fork like purpur or airplane. You can also use these premade performance configs.

PSA: May be a good idea to use Paper instead of Spigot or Bukkit for plugin servers.
If you need even more performance, you may want to look into https://airplane.gg.

Tips for starting an MC server?
Use software like paper or airplane or purpur. All derivatives of each other. Paper is a fork of spigot with preformance improvements and bug patches. Airplane is a fork of paper with minor preformance improvements. Purpur is a upstream of Paper and airplane adding various customizations. Use aikar's flags. DO NOT use optimization plugins, they tend to only make things worse. Pre generate your map, but this has the downside of terrain being stuck through generation changes like 1.18.

Where can I get a server
What i would recommend doing is finding an old laptop or pc that isnt going to be used, and hook it up to ethernet. Then grab a server jar like Paper, and fire it up. Paper is going to be recommended in this case, since you are using not the best hardware. i run my servers off of old pcs (Intel Core i5-4950T @ 2GHz, 16GB DDR3 SDRAM, and 256GB SSD) use Airplane and haven't seen any lag so far. If that's not possible, then find a paid third party hoster like Pebblehost and use that instead

Is there anyway to make a big Minecraft server?
Look into different server software. Vanilla will start lagging when there are more than 10 players at a time. Use Airplane or Purpur in this case. Figure out what plugins you want and learn how to install and configure plugins

Should I switch to Paper?
Just be sure to get airplane-purpur as it's way more performant than purpur. You can get it at https://airplane.gg -> Downloads -> Purpur. I use it for my small 2 GB server with 2 cores and its runs buttery smoother with 6 players and a render distance of 16

I have 4GB of RAM on my 2 player server yet it lags unbearably.
Actually try Paper instead of spigot. Paper is a fork of Spigot which focuses on high performance and bug fixes. And usually runs faster than Spigot. If you rlly need something to run faster than Paper, Tuinity or Airplane will work
What are some alternatives?
Paper - The most widely used, high performance Minecraft server that aims to fix gameplay and mechanics inconsistencies
velocity - Accelerated JavaScript animation.
Purpur - Purpur is a drop-in replacement for Paper servers designed for configurability, and new fun and exciting gameplay features.
Geyser - A bridge/proxy allowing you to connect to Minecraft: Java Edition servers with Minecraft: Bedrock Edition.
Tuinity - [Moved to: https://github.com/Tuinity/Tuinity]
Tuinity - Minecraft server software fork of Paper to improve performance without behavioural changes.
