The 1.20 update is all about self expression, specifically self expression through representation, story telling, and world building. And, it's the journey - your trails - that ties it all together. The Minecraft worlds belong to the players - and so do the stories, or tales, about those worlds.

PaperMC 1.20.1 - Paper prints itself as a "better in every single way" version of Spigot
PaperMC 1.20.1 is a high performance fork of the Spigot Minecraft Server that aims to fix gameplay and mechanics inconsistencies as well as to improve performance.
Quote: “Paper is basically what Spigot was to Craftbukkit. There are so many optimizations within Paper that’ll improve the performance and stability of your server by so much. Paper has been able to optimize a lot of things which Spigot obviously can’t handle yet or ever will without copying Paper.”
Paper is completely compatible with the various versions of Bukkit and Spigot, meaning there’s no worries about plugin compatibility. Through this, there’s various fixes and arrangements that PaperMC provides such as:
- Contains a friendly patching system to reduce admin work
- Improves server speeds
- Fixes different exploits and blocks them
- Applies binary patches
- Shows the improvement to analyze what is lagging on your server (Timings v2)
- A vibrant system with PR reviews (PR system)
- A constantly expanding API for developers

PaperMC 1.20.1 Memory Requirements & Player Slots
- Memory Guideline
To avoid lag or memory errors, order a minimum of 3GB of memory. If you are playing with friends or planning on hosting a public server consider ordering 4GB or more. You won't know your exact requirements until you start building and getting more players on. Don't worry you can quickly upgrade your memory as your server grows. Follow this guide if you need to upgrade.
- Recommended Max Players is our best guess on how many slots gives good performance per GigaByte of memory. It relates to how many players can join before running into lag or out-of-memory errors. Newer servers with lots of mods/plugins will have less players per GB, you won't know exactly how many players until your server gets busy. You have Unlimited Slots, set this in the control panel, use your slots wisely. It's a guideline not set in bedrock!
