About Folia
How's it different from Paper?
Folia is designed to address the constant bottleneck of the Minecraft server running on a single thread causing performance issues. It is by no means a drop-in replacement for Paper.
Is Folia for me?
Folia won't be useful for the majority of servers out there and will break most public plugins. It's ideal for servers with very high players counts, that offer gamemodes that naturally spread players out, such as SkyBlock or SMP.
Where can I learn more?
