A Vanilla server is simply one that runs the game without major modifications. If you are a parent looking to set your child up with a server for the first time, I’d recommend keeping it “Vanilla”. Prices on Apex are affordable, starting as low as $4.99 a month. If your child is familiar with Minecraft and OP controls, we’d recommend Apex.
They have a control panel that allows adults and kids to pretty easily manage their server, see chat logs, and make whitelists of permitted users. Our top choice for a paid server is Apex Hosting.
