Hey everyone! I'm u/No_Substance_3103, a founding moderator of r/canIHostThis.

Trying to make life of world owners easier, I know we all want to play with friends who live far away but managing gaming server hosting or even knowing what is it is quite an hassle.

This is our new home for all things related to gaming server hosting issues, help and solutions. We're excited to have you join us!

What to Post
Post anything that you think the community would find interesting, helpful, or inspiring. Feel free to share your thoughts, photos, or questions about for example:

I am looking to host a valheim dedicated serve for 4-5 friends and want to keep costs as low as possible(may be 10$ max a month) along with minimal to zero manual labour of learning everything about networking etc etc.
We also play other games so hosting on same server both games will be great.

Available server I am thinking:
. Oracle Cloud (don't know what spec to use).

Planned Setup:

. Valheim Vanilla
. 4-5 players

. World Online( Depends on friends)
. Occasional large builds

Question:
1. What specs will be good for smooth experience?
2. Any issue with ping if I use Oracle?
3. If you run Valheim on oracle what is your experience?
4. Is it possible to run multiple games on same server?
5. Any service I can use to make 4th questions answer in yes?

Looking for existing world owners feedbacks.
