i'm cross posting this from the auldnoir forum but

Hello! This might be a longshot since idk how many ppl here have mc servers and stuff but

For the past two years I’ve had a minecraft server running via Nitrado for my family and friends but, recently my roommate alerted me that this particular host is

  1. Weird about having a monopoly on server hosting (mainly for ARK)
  2. Recently laid off their entire spanish speaking staff and creators (only the spanish speaking ones)

and it’s umm shitty

SO!

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for minecraft server hosting that is

  • Affordable
  • Stable
  • Hopefully doesn’t have weird ppl at the helm?

open to any suggestions!

I know there’s a ton of hosting options for MC but i would like any first hand accounts, thank you qwq

MCProhosting isn’t an option bc it’s also been absorbed by nitrado

exaroton has been great for me so far

its by the same people behind aternos and you only* pay when your server is actually running

its also really easy to change how much RAM the server uses so u dont have worry about picking a plan or anything

  • (minor exception if no one plays for like a month, they just charge a really small fee just to cover storage costs)

I've used OVH all of my life, and, since you mention MCProHosting, they spawned a subsidiary in the US a few years ago, in addition to their Canadian datacentres.
Their game-oriented offers seem to be gone, or I can't find them anymore, and replaced with their small 5 bucks dedicated servers.
They're hosting WikiLeaks if that's your thing.
