Honestly, Minehut itself isnt that bad in concept. Giving players the means to be able to create ideas and turn them into servers easily is really good- the problem is the implementation and the amount of monetization in the space.

Videos like these make me appreciate the few legit and genuine Minecraft servers out there, even though I rarely ever play multiplayer these days

This rabbit hole of servers is really weird, makes you enjoy the actually good servers out there much better

I own a few servers on Minehut. I own a Mario kart server and a paintball server and they were really fun to make and run. The low barrier of entry was very important because it allowed me to explore ideas with no monetary cost. Creating the servers still took time though. Unfortunately, I never got more than 12 concurrent players on either, but that was enough for me to be happy.

I actually regularly play on minehut, I know you have to pay to get your server boosted, but like on most other places you have to pay to have a server at all. I think that even with all this pay-to-win, minehut is still a great place. I played on this one where you get random items whenever you die, and you also got an ender chest, so people repeatedly died and put the good items they got in their ender chest. Super fun

Minehut is both very creative and interesting to see, but a nightmare to actually play most of the time.

They actually are really good for making free servers that friends from bedrock and Java editions can crossplay.

As a active minehut server owner & player, this is just the nature of MC multiplayer but on steroids You get essentially most of the good & bad of MC servers jacked up to the 11 I don't think Minehut is really a "scam", my personal experiences have been fine and I ran a decently successful server on their platform for awhile The biggest issue with them is the lack of support (ironically) they have, not stopping servers that break minecraft ToS, etc Unfortunately they're here to stay and we're all just gonna have to live with it

I've been working on a server for quite a while now and Minehut definitely imposed a threat to my original plan. I think the idea of Minehut will last a long time (just like Roblox), however I'm sure there will be plenty of players who enjoy standalone servers. I'm hoping so anyway.

I think the most ideal version of this already exists, and I can say is pretty interesting. There's a server called Diamond Fire, which you might have heard of, and instead of having people host a server through a server panel and add plugins, it has an in-game coding system which is quite intuitive and even fun. Plus, many of the servers at the top of the list are genuinely unique and creative and have had decent effort put into them. The only downside is that they require you to pay for some things, but for what the server is, it's entirely reasonable, and I even wanted to support them. Your "server" is actually a square plot where you can build and an area for your lines of code on the side. You have to pay if you want to get more plots and ones of bigger sizes, as well as some more specialized commands, but you can still make relatively cool things with the things they offer for free. In fact, many games which didn't seem to be paid for at all and had effort put into them were at the top of the featured list. It has a great community, and the only thing that seems to be lacking is the limited space, which is unfriendly to open-world games, and survival-type servers. It's a good example, though, of how video games can produce good things at times, even if they include paid aspects!

To sum it up: it's good in thought but executed poorly due to big server owners

I love how creative you are with the way you ask for subscribers in your videos. Some of them are quite funny, wouldn't mind a compilation actually, although that might be a really weird thing to ask for lol.

Just a note at 7:28 : That is not a farming server, SkyAmogus is known to use incorrect tags for their server. Farming servers are more similar to gens servers, but instead of generators you’re farming crops like in vanilla, but with the tick speed increased. (Also, gens servers originated from farming servers as a way to reduce lag)

10:36 a similar thing happens on the server diamondfire. You get a certain area of land(50x50, 100x100) and you can build in it, set the spawn. Next to it you have an area in which you can place blocks that act as code, so you can make your own game. To promote the plot, buy a plot, or buy blocks to code with, you need to get tokens. To get them, you have to play games

i’ve only ever used minehut to create small servers for myself and friends to play survival together (for which it works really well and provides many hours of fun), so it’s interesting to see the full scope of the good, bad, and ugly of minehut

The 15 second SMP honestly seems extremely interesting as a concept, and stuff like that is hard to find, they're never advertised. I prefer anarchy servers, I'm usually trying to find ones that aren't advertised but seem really fun for days when I'm not able to play on 2b2t. I've browsed all sorts of stuff, and I'll be honest, the normal servers get the most ads, which I find quite sad. Smaller servers really need a chance to shine, so while Minehut would help in concept, it doesn't help, especcially with external server advertisements

I love watching his videos. Has much as I don’t enjoy play minecraft as much as I use to. These are the only type mc videos that can keep me entertained

im a mod on idlegens (0:49) and i agree with you on the problem, however its not just minehut thats known for this problem - any gen or box server requires you to be afk, its just a part of the game (that doesnt include the shitty afk pools that most box servers have lmao) edit: another thing i forgot to mention is that paying for a minehut server is sometimes incredibly expensive, so most minehut owners monetise their server to keep it up, our server almost got shut down this season

Played Minehut in the early days, around 2017 or so. Top servers used to always change and it was a lot of fun to find different and unique gamemodes, and communities. Making servers was also a ton of fun and getting a few players on there was always rewarding. The idea you talked about is exactly what Minehut used to be, and it sucks how they’ve allowed stuff like external servers.

i remember when minehut was a lot simpler in 1.12, monetization wasnt insane like it is now, and the people running it seemed to care

Used to run the biggest server on Minehut, then got easily beaten after they introduced their ads and new server list, really upsetting because new I rarely get new players joining unless if I pay 50$ a day for ads. Really good video

I love your videos! You post so fast and the videos are great and you warn people about the dangers in Minecraft or something like that idk i just love your vids!

I love weekly Sunday Mr Epic videos

100 gb of ram costs about 500-600 dollars. Minehut's margins are absolutely insane, even with the other specs included

I had an SMP server on Minehut I hosted for me and my friends. Minehut had great performance and I didn't need to bother with P2W stuff thankfully. However I hated the credits system and the fact you could only do a small amount of stuff on the free plan. It locked me down and we couldn't do much in the way of plugins or datapacks.

I remember when I ran the biggest server in Minehut and also started a new trend of servers. It was many years ago, but I made a server called like SkyPvP or something like that and had 20 consecutive players (max per server at the time) during all hours of the day. It was pretty much where you would jump from island to island collecting resources and then use those resources to by better pvp items to kill more players and I have a leaderboards and secret items and weapons and all that stuff. Afterwards, so many servers started doing the same thing. But then because Minehut was so unsecure and a guy came on and just annihilated the server and absolutely destroyed it. Was a great time though and I made a ton of friends who helped build the server and who I would help build their own servers afterwards for a little while.

My personal thanks for including the music in the description. Rare to see

I remember when Lucas originally created the MineHut server. It used to be a mini games server like all the other big ones, but they struck gold with this idea.

Imagine criticizing the AFK pools and immediately after the video adding one to your server 💀

I remember trying to make a private SMP with friends years ago with Minehut, and not only did it not work the first time, but when I got it working, it was so laggy it was unplayable.

I actually used to operate a Minehut Box-Server/KitPVP called kittenbox back in 2020. It was an experience, and I even hired people for free to build maps. It was fun, me and some friends hosted it and stole some schematics from online, and it was all free. I got bored though and it hasn’t been played since 2021.

The easiest solution would be for Minehut to globally introduce AFK player count ignores where the AFK players are not counted so those servers don't get as high

my brother made a minehut server, for our family and friends, it used to be public so randoms could join, most were chill and just built a house and never joined again, and there was one guy who tried to speedrun the world, after about 10 minutes he died in the neather when grabbing blaze rods, he then continuasly died trying to continue for about 20 minutes till he rage quit, the server ran fine but quickly loading chunks lagged everyone and it kinda killed it for us, I tried a few of the other servers and they were fun for a bit but I rarely go back to them

7:25 the server you showed off was actually something that i think is considered a "skymine server". an actual farming server has basically the same layout of a gen server but instead of gens you have to create crop farms to sell.

I used to play a server simply called “dupe” and you got a random item every minute but could /dupe to dupe the item in your hand. It was just maxed pvp, but it reset once and there was a rush to get things like mending, since enchanted books weren’t in the drop table, and no mobs spawned, including villagers. The only way to get mending was from fishing. It took a week for the first mending book to appear.

Minehut was completely different when I first joined in 2019, it didn't had advertisements to servers that's not from Minehut and had less pay to win servers. Also the server is barely noticeable lol (since it was the 50th populated sever in 2019). It was pretty good back then, but now it's really different.

Love Minehut, the people on there are so trusting. Join a random server, gain their trust, grief their base, bathe in gamer tears. Repeat.

Congrats for 500k 🎉🎉

At 10:15 , I actually used to play look. It was a pretty fun unique spin on the randomizer void servers. But it recently got reset and now is, while even more unique, very boring and grindy unlike its past. I almost actually got a trident from the custom villager trades(villagers and emeralds are kinda insane hard to get. And even harder to keep safe since theres a 200 border.), but it reset and went down for a whole month. Which made me bummed out.

You also have to take optimisation into account. Extremely well optimised servers can use little RAM, your server might just be unoptimised.

Keep up the good work fellow Australian (I saw your about)

oh, it's all incremental games? I used to play a server called LattyCraft Miners, which was a similar gamemode of mining and selling progressive resources to rank up through the classic "A to Z" prison server ranks. This server had the mechanic i would come to know as prestige, where you would play though this game multiple times with increasing perks, each time getting faster and faster. It's really cool how this style of game can flourish on minehut due to the very small barrier for entry, and this surely means more well-designed experiences are on the way soon.

I can't believe that people are NOW starting to take notice of this situation on Minehut, I've been noticing this since early 2021.

Could u make a good list of non p2w servers with its own unique Gane modes

I actually own a minehut server. It's extremely expensive to run with only 3 GB. I am struggling to pay for the server but I don't want to shut it down because of all the people that enjoy it.

After a bit of digging in my downloads folder, I found a (fairly old) txt file that contains a bit of information about the CPU. Not sure if this applies to all servers/tiers! From the txt it appears that the servers are running on a AMD EPYC 7502P CPU, with a base clock of 2.5GHz boosting up to 3.35GHz. They also seem to be equipped with ~256GiB of RAM. Although the txt doesn't list the RAM's clock speed, the maximum clock speed should be 3200MHz. Edit: This file is from September 2021, for anyone curious

I used to have my minecraft server hosted on minehut I stopped using it after the server's world got corrupted, thankfully i had a backup and now host it on something else. I've booted up the old minehut one but now they like shove pop-ups into the game chat and it is too annoying to keep using

Very good vid totally watched it

I was part of the community of a small box server It was really fun, because it allowed non harmful hacking And then the owner stopped allowing that because not enough people were buying p2w ranks It kinda backfired tho cause half the existing community quit

thanks for making such great content several times a month

If you look into the mini games section you'll see tons of good and unique servers like a murder mystery server and the classic game of tag.

The real scams were the old trades villagers had.

epic video i haven't seen it yet

This channel made me appreciate all videos it made

I remember back in like 2021 when minehut would have genuine servers at the top (i host a server which once reached 1st on the list with ~100 players back then) and would have actually enjoyable servers, now it seems that minehut mostly cares about money and doesn't want to deal with the big issues (like people using bots to advertise servers in the lobby which is against the rules yet they dont care, or the fact minehut goes down frequently) its also really sad how all the good servers got overshadowed by the effortless cashgrabs which fill up the top server list, making it almost impossible to grow a server. Minehut really is just a breeding ground for scummy people who want to make quick cash from gullible children.

yo im hella early

Good morning

As someone who does not even play Minecraft often, I have to say your videos are incredibly entertaining. Good job man

I've been playing on minehut since 2016, and first it used to be a place where unique and creative servers could find players because everyone had an equal chance and there was no pay to win. I actually owned one of the first gen servers except it was based around pvp with guns. You are right that the rich get richer on minehut, but it definitely used to be different.

Here's what I want #BringBackWaitOutTheNight #MakeSurvivalMinecraftSurvivalAgain Yeah, Minecraft is great how it is now but we still are missing one of it's key, core elements, survival. You need that balance between infinite creativity and an actual challenge, the actual adrenaline rush and dopamine. Nowadays you can only really find that with mods or in SMP's where the only threat can be other players (or if you spawn in a massive desert biome which no village or temple anywhere near). Mojang can make mobs slightly faster or stronger, give them more health or make them require less absence of light to spawn so they can spawn more frequently in slightly more illuminated areas. They can and in my personal opinion absolutely should make certain resources and structures exceedingly more rare. Again #BringBackWaitOutTheNight #MakeSurvivalMinecraftSurvivalAgain

Some years ago, I started playing on a server hosted on minehut, it was called "10". The idea of the server was that every 10 seconds you would either get a dirt block or a cobble block, and with that and only that, in the middle of the void, you could craft a large list of items through custom recipes (a sappling from dirt, etc). Needless to say, i've never seen that idea on any other server or minigame ever (excluding those unoriginal servers where you can get any single item), and I think "10" only existed because of how easy it is to create a server on Minehut and make any idea come true. To my knowledge, this "10" server ended a long time ago, but it was one of the most entertaining activities I had back then.

I remember forceopping and taking down a few minehut servers was a fun time, though I have since not been able to do that kind of stuff

The ads for what I can remember where recent being add months ago. Also the little guys get suffer from burn out making something custom as don’t get out there not making them enough money to push further as the places are done by people with little experience making it difficult for them with also not having the time to put into it. As big servers know that minehut has a young player base (letting bedrock players join) so they know they don’t have to do much to hook players in as it’s easy to pick up and is on top. (I have no idea if that was coherent at all just wanted to get my opinion out).

Love your videos!!

That dude at 2:46 just straight up SHMOOVIN on that parkour course 🤣

Watching these videos really makes me want to get back into Minecraft multiplayer, I haven't played multiplayer like this in years. Only a few mod packs with friends or on my own

nice video. btw the CPU of the servers are an AMD EPYC 7502P.

One of my favorite minecraft servers are JungleRPG, it’s a mmo rpg where you kill mobs, bosses and do quest. It was a really interesting and fun server.

i actually go there sometimes and go to random servers, i mostly get box servers which I hate but sometimes i get survival SMPs i even have a screenshot of something one of the members built with me in it i even have my own minehut server

I wasn’t aware of all the shady stuff going on with minehuts server advertising, I don’t think I’ll play on the server as much after seeing this. But I reckon I’ll check out the small and unpopular ones you talked about, As they look realllly interesting.

1 of my fav minehut servers was magerpg I rly hope someone recreates it again cuz the old magerpg kept crashing

when u pointed how many "people" were afk on the servers i was suprised. i noticed it but just assumed that many people were afking

Me and my friends play together on Minecraft servers, I think they are good just to play with your friends and maybe show your creations to the public once in a while.

I have never thought about the paid options i always thought that was odd that they had no specs . I love minehut because it probably the best option for free except for the join randoms server part bc a lot of times when im setting it up it will be griefed b4 ive joined

Once I found the coolest server ever on Minehut, but sadly it got shutdown like a year back, it was called Dropzone and it was basically a world with complete void where players would get one random item every 10 seconds, which made an interesting economy and also the world was built by players trying to traverse what the players before them have laid, it was not pay to win and it had a small nice community, I really miss that server

Nice video mister epic keep it up!

Former Minehut player here. There are alot of things wrong with that server. ill list my top 3 biggest nitpicks. 1. Pay to win features: Keep inventory (on box servers in particular), overpowered gear, instant mine tools 2. Gen servers do new seasons too often + players who donated dont reset all the way. (worked my way up to baltop 25, planning a factory style build. new season happens and im back to square 1.) 3. ungodly amount of lag at times

so glad you’ve done a video on minehut! it’s one i’ve been waiting for for a while now tbh and it was great. i enjoyed it like your other videos :)

I also love how you pronounce “Pepsi” “bebsy”

The new update makes users pay monthly for ranks and makes a limited 10 adverts a month.

I personally just decided to buy a used workstation PC for $300, and use that to host my servers. I can run multiple servers for MC and any other game simultaneously. The upside for me though, is that I host personal servers, played between me and friends across different games. Each MC server doesnt run more than 10 people at any given point, so I dont need crazy hardware, and the ability to set up new servers for different games whenever I want is worth the cost. It might save me money in the long term, instead of a monthly cost, but it is a much higher bar to entry. If you are trying to start a massive online server though, I do not recommend doing this. It is great for small groups of friends, but if I tried to open this up to the public and host a "real" server, I could see the system being overwhelmed pretty quickly.

I used to know the provider that Minehut uses to host the servers. I’ll see if I can find it again. Well that was when it was still owned by Luuke, and not Superleague

There is a really easy way to use an external server with minehut, you just use a proxy server as velocity, and then do something idk how to explain to redirect players to another ip

The bepsi drinking one sounds like soda drinker pro but with a pvp survival twist

Me and a friend used to run a pretty unique minehut server (Not P2W at all, we didnt monetize anything) and it was honestly really fun. We had a small community and it was the most fun I've ever had on minehut.

I once met a friend on minehut. Idk where he is today. But i hope i can meet him again

played on minehut back when it was smaller, had a server which consistently hit 30 players. Many of the servers on minehut were basically the same gens/skymines servers copy pasted with barely any difference at the time, i wonder how it is now

Full is a good void survival server. staff is fun, talkative game but unfortunately its not as popular anymore.. used to avg. 30-40 everyday now it only get around 7-22 a day. I believe they are adding an events feature where u can /event host for mini events while playing such as ZvsH, skywars, and other mingames.

10:11 you don't need to have a rank to /ad, your cooldown simply decreases

even tho i quit MC a few years ago this shit is still so good to watch

Another video, another W 🔥🔥

i was aprt of a minhut server that was kinda like a box pvp, but we had zones and platforms with parkour and you always had to kill unique mobs to get resources instead of other players or mining

back when minehut was new and basically every server was the same me and my friends would don hacked clients and join servers wity no anticheat and mess around with the people there for example on those box mining servers we would teleport out of the box and try to beat the game before the admins banned us lmfao

I remember a meme server where it encourages you to dupe with a included command

I used minehut for a smp with my friends a few times and it has dogshit security. One time a griefer entered our world and griefed our bases and crashed the server with massive tnt attacks. Another time some guy hacked our server and spawned mobs and pretended to be herobrine. Since they didn’t appear in the player tabs I was unable to do anything.

I knew a crazy SCP minehut server, that was amazing SCPs were great, guns too and it has a lot of staff members connected. They had a discord were you can pass test to rank up and if you abuse something you get demoted. That was beautiful.

The high prices they're charging is likely to cover the cost of the free version they have to get people in the door

As someone who sometimes plays there I like the server, there are no servers that have most of the stuff there

It used to be that all paid servers are 24/7 but that changed sadly
