SwiftServers is a free Minecraft hosting platform that is trying to be the opposite of the usual free host pain. It is made to feel fast and simple and they say the panel is fully custom and built from scratch so it is lightweight and easy to use.
It works for a chill vanilla SMP with friends or a Paper server. They also support Spigot and Fabric plus server types like Hytale Luanti and ClassiCube.
They talk a lot about being safe too with DDoS protection and a backup system so you can create and restore backups fast.
The plan they highlight comes with 8 GB RAM a Ryzen 5 3600 10 GB NVMe storage and a 1 Gbit uplink. They also say they do not cap player slots and you can get a server going in under a minute with no credit card.
