MCHOSTS VS MINEHUT

Minehut's free tier caps you at 4 hours per day with 1 GB RAM and blocks TLauncher users. MCHosts gives you 2 GB RAM, no time limit, TLauncher support, and automatic backups — all free.

QUICK VERDICT

Choose MCHosts if you play more than 4 hours, use TLauncher, or want Forge/Fabric support. Choose Minehut if you need Bedrock crossplay or multiple servers on one account.

NO TIME LIMIT

Play all day. Minehut's free tier cuts you off after 4 hours.

TLAUNCHER OK

Cracked and TLauncher players welcome. Minehut blocks them.

2X THE RAM

2 GB RAM free vs Minehut's 1 GB. Smoother gameplay and faster chunks.
