Hi! I want to selfhost a minecraft server for my kid and hjs friends. I havent played minecraft in quite a few years …

Where do I start to self host one?

I am already seflhosting lost of stuff from 'Arrs to Jellyfin and Immich and more, so I am not asking on how to do it technically, but where to look for and what to host for a proper Minecraft server!

Edit: choosed to setup this https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-bedrock-server and so far, super smooth and easy peasy!

    So if you’re planning to have the kid play on Switch or something like that, it’s not going to work.

    You can run Geyser (a modified Minecraft server) to let bedrock clients play on your Java server.
