Fabric Mods for Admins
Been about a year since I've setup a server and all I can remember is Ledger.
Anything else people recommended using?...

How do you decide to use dbs for single servers?
Other than big plugins like Coreprotect and map plugins, how do you decide to use a db over local storage? Is it best practice to use it whenever possible, or only for a few cases?
Thanks...
Looking for a team based Minecraft plugin that allows to have shared claims

Paid Server Host for small SMP
Looking to host a small smp, likely no more than 10 users on at once. Likely will run fabric with a few mods so nothing too crazy. Hoping since it's such a small server that I can stay under or around $10 USD but tell me if that's too small of a budget for this. Throw me any ideas for server hosts that I can look into :) this server is very much still in the planning stage - hence I'm vague on numbers a bit

Server admin questions
1. How much does server quality vs local pc quality determine lag. I am tryna play modded with some friends and I want to know if they will still be able to play with worse computers if the server is good enough --- ie. when the server generates terrain, loads items etc does it use his computer or is that all server side
2. in this said server with 3-4 people doing a heavier modpack (hopingh all the mods 10 if tech constraints allow), what size of server should i get? 8gb? 16gb? and does anyone have any reccomendations from dealing with a similar situation
thanks...
Prevent using trapdoors but not doors or buttons
Hello everyone !
I'm making a multiplayer hub that's a village and I want to prevent players to mess with trapdoors in a defined zone.
I obviously thought of Worldguard but it seems like you cannot specify a per-block management. I need players to be able to access doors, chests and such, but not trapdoors, item frames or paintings...
Solution:
Found this and it seems to cover what I need to do https://hangar.papermc.io/Elgenzay/HoneyGuard
Big lag spikes on Unraid
I have a NeoForge 21.1.209 server set up through itzg’s docker container. Recently we have been seeing really severe lag spikes and slow chunk loading
I took a spark profile of the major spikes (all of them were >1000ms) and saw that all of them were spending nearly 100% of the tick in PlayerList.saveAll(), stuck on a file write.
I tried quite a few things to troubleshoot, including testing the current world without mods, in a new world with and without mods, and nothing seems to help here....

Best backup plugin for a 1.21.8 fabric server hosted on Mac
Im thinking of hosting a server on my MacBook but I’ll be busy and won’t be able to manually create backups since I’ll be somewhere else when the server is running and im worried something might happen and it’ll require a rollback. Are there any good auto backup plugins for fabric 1.21.8-.9? Or how to make a auto create and delete command

Should I move luckperms to the proxy?
Hi, I have several servers linked with a proxy, and they each have their own independent luckperms setup. However I recently switched from bungee to velocity, and I'm having issues getting placeholders to work across the network for custom tablists. Apparently having one centralised luckperms database on the proxy might help with this. Idk much about it though, and looks like a pain to set up. Would it cause new issues if I have separate ranking systems for each server? I also have a donor ranks...
AntiCheat ranking/What’s the best AC for my use case?
So now that we’ve established that Vulcan is bad and Polar is probably the best but also aaS, what one-time paid and/or free AC would you recommend for a server that peaks at like 10 concurrent players or less and at what player count/monthly revenue/something else would you switch to Polar or would you recommend something different as “the best Anti-Cheat”?
Having problems with systemd and tmux
Whenever I run tmux through systemd, it doesn't actually create the tmux session. It works fine if I run tmux directly, but not through systemd.
The tmux command in question:
tmux -L minecraft new-session -c /srv/minecraft/server -s minecraft -d 'java -Xmx8G -Xms256M -jar paper.jar nogui'
(yes I know i'm not using the optimal flags, i'm just setting it up though)...Solution:
I figured it out! The user I was running the script as was a system user and so they had nologin as the shell.
When I ran it from su -u username -s, it worked fine because I was running it in a shell, but obviously systemd doesn't have that.
So I just set the shell environment variable in the systemd unit and it works now...
Oracle server
Does it worth time to setup oracle server or i just should use Aternos?
Im running free private minecraft server just because no one wants to pay Im forced to use free hosting or use own money to pay for hosting(which i really don't want to since i already gave them my time for free)
localhosting is BAD idea for me and here's why: setup alone will be harder like ddos protection or some way to hide my ip also making sure electricity costs aren't expensive and just getting that one device to host server in first place which sum up to be more expensive for server that will run only couple weeks than buying hosting for month
