It supports Java and Bedrock crossplay and it is cracked compatible. The server runs on version 1.21.11 and it has strong anti cheat. Trading is real player to player item for item with no inflated economy numbers and there is no hand holding.

The only big non vanilla thing is a spawn command so people far away can get back to civilization. Nether roof access is allowed. Phantoms are removed and only half the players are needed to skip the night.
