docker-mc-backup VS Purpur

Each Docker container has it's now backup strategy. For example: * Portainer https://docs.portainer.io/admin/settings#backup-portainer * [docker] itzg Minecraft https://github.com/itzg/docker-mc-backup * [docker] MongoDB I have a homegrown script that runs a mongodump every hour and dumps it the mounted backup folder * [docker] Home Assistant - I use HA Google Drive Backup to back up my config

Sever has 64GB, so I'm fine. I use docker for everything on the server. I use the mc-backupmc-backup image to restic backup all of my worlds, and another container for netdata.

We will be downloading the Minecraft server files into this directory. To preface, there are numerous variations of server JARs that can be used (e.g. Spigot, Paper, Purpur each touting their own benefits). For this tutorial, we will be working with Paper, a fork of Spigot that is optimized for performance.

I Mostly Like Linux as a OS For a Server and PurpurMC (https://purpurmc.org) As a Server Software and i Mostly Use EssentialsX and WorldEdit and More Server Management Stuff.

If you prefer to go the old-school Bukkit/Spigot/Paper/Purpur route (which provides the greatest level of compatibility with pre-existing server plugins), I recommend the latter of the four. Each of these projects is a fork, built on each other in that same order. Each fork offers additional customisation, API, and performance enhancements over its predecessor.

I’d recommend Paper (which is a fork of spigot) or Purpur which is a fork of paper and pufferfish

If you're looking to re-add gravity duping I would recommend not using a plugin but switching your server software to PurpurMC. It is a fork/version of PaperMC that re-adds gravity duping as a config option as well as the ability to toggle back on things like tnt duping and several other features that the PaperMC devs arbitrarily decided were bugs (even though Mojang has explicitly not removed them).

Small addendum:\ If you want to keep using a paper derivative (as a drop-in replacement), you can use purpurMC instead. It provides a config option to enable gravity block duping by disabling sand.fix-duping. (At least for sand)

You can host a small purpur server

Have you tried re-downloading the latest purpur jar file from the purpur website?

tweak some configuration, try lower your entities spawn, I at last you might want to try PurPurMC for the server, it's paper fork with some modification, I feel a lot of improvement since using this fork...
