  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Tuinity

    Discontinued Minecraft server software fork of Paper to improve performance without behavioural changes.

  • Running vanilla with a lot of players is going to start creating a lot of tps lag. I would recommend running Paper or even Tuinity if you are having higher player counts. Depending on the player count and other factors like plugins, etc, you would want to go for 4-8GB of ram + a higher end CPU.

  • Paper

    The most widely used, high performance Minecraft server that aims to fix gameplay and mechanics inconsistencies

  • LuckPerms

    A permissions plugin for Minecraft servers.

  • The stock vanilla server software has become very laggy these days. If you run vanilla, and have multiple people generating new chunks, the lag starts to be unbearable. That's where Paper comes in. Paper is a fork of spigot (plugin support), and aims to fix bugs + optimize for higher performance. On top of that, Paper can run plugins, so stuff like Grief Prevention, CoreProtect, and Luckperms can all be used
