The idea is great and all, but the developers just cannot make it work. It is by far one of the most annoying server hosting platforms ever. 1) the servers are down so much of the time. Go to #announcements , you'll see "We are aware of the issue with starting/stopping servers, we are working on it". It would have been acceptable, except IT KEEPS HAPPENING. WAY TOO MANY TIMES. Not a platform to host your SMP on. 2) Chat does not always support latest version, and it should. I don't want to switch to 1 semi-update earlier just to be able to /ad my server once. 3) Servers don't support old versions anymore I guess. Tried 1.12.2 and spent an hour trying to create an SMP. "service not found". Need I say more? Switch to Aternos if you have the same problem.

True, the only benefit is that its one of the only "free" host on minecraft and you dont have to get on the dashboard to start it. Recently, my friends started a smp but its been 5 days we cant play because of glitches. We are considering switching hosts to something that doesnt crash or stop everytime we play.
I recomment aternos. Now hear me out, as much as it's annoying to start up, everyone can start it up if you add the people the server (they just need an aternos account)
Then get a paid hosting, minehut is unique because of advertising, the ingame serverlist and free servers. It may be unstable lately, but that has not always been the case. If you really think it's that bad then simply switch
I recommend running it on your own pc (if you can)
or an old one
possibly aternos but that's not very good for late game
mh was not that bad it was rly good but after they shift there host, it's been total trash ngl
You can connect an external server to minehut
yea but mh effects external servers
if one of your friends has a good pc they can host the server
would give good ping if you live close together
There's a host similar to Minehut that works decent from what I've seen, but it is much less known than minehut
a bit cheaper as well
I think I know which one you mean, but it's waay smaller than mh
Minefort is the name
theyre having a database outage right now though 💀
sorry not database
datacenter or smthn
seconding this, minefort is a good alternative for smaller servers, due to less data being allocated, but less crashes, shutdowns, smaller playerbase, easier plugin interaction etc.
I just set up a smp server
with 40 or so plugins
on minefort right
1gb of ram, free plan
20 tps with occasional lag spikes
even with 6 players online
though it depends heavily on the configuration of the server software
for it to run smoothly on 1gb of ram
Minehut could never do this
wait i looked it up, minefort also uses 1gb of ram for free servers
