Personally, I found it as easy as Plex. I started my self hosting journey with Plex and Minecraft servers on a windows pc. Now I'm launching docker containers over ssh and lxc containers in proxmox for Jellyfin. Minecraft is still the hardest thing to host lol
I'm actually considering hosting a Luanti / "MineTest" server for this experience, since my wife lost her Minecraft account / key thingy since the time we played in beta ages ago haha.
I wonder if it's any easier to host or not. ๐ค
minetest is on maintenance mode so they can focus on the engine itself luanti you should use mineclonia from luanti it's much more fleshed out
Hey that's super helpful, I really appreciate it! Thank you! I haven't checked in on the project(s) in quite a while. :)
