Like others already advised you should be okay using an old laptop running Linux. Also get the paper server for minecraft as it is way more optimized than the vanilla servers

Edit: I almost forgot, using GraalVM instead of OpenJDK or whatever default Java installation is worth looking into. Doing that gave my Minecraft client a ~20% performance uplift

Also if you need help getting more FPS for a better (clientside) gaming experience feel free to reach out

Bookmarked, will have to look if i can import an already made world into paper.

You can, just copy the world directory and see that it's the same name as in server.properties file

Don't forget to back it up first 👍

Ngl if youre not used to linux I don't reccomend this, it can get a lot more annoying that its worth having to learn 2 things at once (but it will be more efficient)

[–] AceSLS@ani.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Just copy your world and try if it works

Also keep in mind that paper breaks some redstone contraptions with it's optimizations. If that's a dealbreaker for you you can also install Fabric and some performance mods onto a vanilla server instead

I personally never had a problem running paper though

we still have not come to use any advanced redstone contraptions, im still struggling to make decent spiral rail till down deep for faster travel
