Hi everyone,

I’ve been experimenting with Minecraft command blocks and thought it would be fun to run a small server for some light testing and casual gameplay with friends. I’m currently using an i5 gaming laptop, and it’s been handling single-player worlds pretty well so far, even with a few resource-heavy command creations.

My goal is to set up a mini server that runs command blocks, some Redstone contraptions, and possibly lightweight plugins. Since the i5 gaming laptop has decent specs and a dedicated GPU, I’m optimistic about its performance, but I’d like to hear about others’ experiences running similar setups.
