Fine host that lets you do you
It's been around three months that I started using Anvilnode for my Minecraft server. I took the 1GB offer because I wanted to try it out and it turns out to be fairly good. I like the fact that you are pretty much free to do anything you want in terms of running alternative server executables or configure your server through FTP access. (meaning you dont actually need to pay more to run all the mods you want) I had to use a different server executable (Fabric) than the default one to avoid lag but I can't tell if it has to do with having only 1GB of RAM or default minecraft server 15.2 not being optimized at all or with Anvilnode itself. Also keep note they make it really easy to run your server with Spigot or Paper and others. You just need to click on the server type that suits you best and it gets installed. I did wait a full day before being able to use the server after purchasing the first month. That wasn't a problem. Anyway for the usage I make of it it works just fine. However, given the price of the 2GB offer, I would probably find another host if it turns out I need more RAM. Fair enough

Hello, Thank you very much for your feedback! I'm glad to hear you've enjoyed your service with us so far. With regards to your lag - I'm not sure which server type you're referring to, but it is worth noting that later versions of the game (1.14 and above) are notoriously laggy, and will experience issues regardless of if there's 1 or 8GB of RAM assigned. For this reason we always suggest using at least Spigot, or even Paper. That being said, if you still experience lag, please do let us know so that we can look into your server further and determine what the cause of it is. ^ AJ
