As title said, want to start hosting a server for me and my friends, but don't know the first thing about what the servers specs should be. I know there are a lot of posts about this already I'm sure, but all the ones I found were from years ago and with the recent Minecraft Spec changes I wanted a more up to date place to start from.
With all that said, what are the specs I should be looking for to run a server for up to 8 people?
Is single threaded still king for MC servers? I know it's off topic for the sub but will that single threaded CPU be fine for other games or is that just better for a game like MC?
The server will be most likely vanilla (Fabric or Paper), but I want to future proof for the possibility of a modded server, or even running other game servers, possibly at the same time as the MC server.
I'll be selfish and hope for prebuilt recs but I am also comfortable with building something or editing an old mini PC.
Smaller is preferred, but honestly I'd just want to limit power consumption as I want this thing to be running 24/7.
I think that's everything, sorry if there is any other information needed, more than happy to answer any follow-up questions
