BTW, this is the actual oldest server (and it's still up): https://minecraftonline.com/

This is a close contender (it's is also up, and really thriving; it's even on close to the latest version): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2b2t

I can recommend 2b2t if you don't mind the 4chan-like mentality in the chat. Probably the only server where coding is actually a desired, core skill in factions/teams/groups.



While yes 2b2t is on a modern version most of its history was spent on 1.12. Only last year did they jump to 1.9 and only in the last few months to 1.20. Not knocking it, just most of the old builds and metas were based on 1.12.


Is 1.12 not more modern than 1.9?


I think they dropped a 1, i.e. they meant to type 1.19


He means 1.19


Yes, meant 1.19.


Do you mean 1.19?



I don't think that server is German though? Headline at this moment in time is "Oldest largest German Minecraft server shut down..."


I saw this and thought it was MinecraftOnline that shutdown. MCO has a great community, and is pretty much the anti-2b2t. MCO is also German.


They really are the Yin and Yang of Minecraft.


Indeed, MCO has a special place in my heart.
