As a hosting service, somewhat decent, The community part isn't great anymore.
Im not going to hate on Minehut directly, it was a good idea - but just made to impractical by business aims and other real world issues with such a model. First with their new advertisement system, it very well keeps free servers from having anything but hackers on their servers. IT intentionally makes paid servers be the only ones to actually get a decent community. You will always have trolls and hackers on your server and only a few players will ever stick for anything but payouts for being the top player. The other issue is that the proxies Minehut utilizes are not good ,so when you pay for a MH75 or MH Unlimited (6GB - 75 players / 10GB - 500 players) Your server will NEVER be utilized well because everyone will lag due to the proxy giving out altogether. Minehut servers (even the paid ones!) are not very computationally powerful and lag easily - this problem becomes apparent with free servers as Skript must be used beyond a very small (12 to be exact) number of plugins - Skript then gets used for things it really shouldn't be used for, and many servers then experience nothing but issues. Additionally, it seems that the staff of Minehut do not communicate well as upgrades and maintenance sessions seem very disorganized and uncoordinated. A continuous cycle of servers occurs, a server will be popular for a season or two, then it's community will stagnate altogether and you may never see the server again. Additionally, Minehut does NOT downrank servers that are created using low effort techniques or just rehashed Skripts altogether, meaning that the majority of "popular" servers are just "Generator' servers using the same rehashed skript and upgraded to MH75/MH Unlimited. Overall here is my final ratings Server preformance - 1/5 -> Bad proxies, poor amount of processing power and low RAM allocations for high rank servers - Community - 2/5 -> There are some genuine people but a lot of hackers, racists, sexists, trolls, etc. are all over the place! - Pricing - 3/5 -> This is *decent* only for MH20/35 servers, if you have a better server than your paying WAY too much for what you are getting in return. - Web Panel - 2/5 -> Decent for managing your server, but you cannot edit files like server.properties, and you cannot download files, or view plugin storage files. This is obviously done to make it a pain in the ass to move to a different host. - Staff Responsibility - 2/5 -> I know the staff try their best some times but they only ever seem to either be paid service biased, or just silence people altogether and refuse to acknowledge issues. 1/5,2/5,2/5,2/5,3/5 = 2 stars total. Sorry but if you're looking to start a server - Minehut used to be a good place but thats fading fast, other hosts are probably better at this point. ---- I want to add that I understand what you guys do to free servers since they require resources too and thats something you only have a finite amount of but an upgrade to your servers and figuring out your proxies woukd help A LOT.
