[IMPORTANT] Minecraft: Java Edition servers now require a minimum of Java 17 or above to run. In the video Java 14 is installed. Replace the number 14 with the latest version of Java. For example as of today the latest version of Java for Linux Ubuntu 21.04 is 17. Enter the following command in the terminal without the quotations "sudo apt install openjdk-17-jre-headless"

What is a Minecraft VPS?
A VPS (short for virtual private server) is a fully-isolated virtual environment based on a bare-metal server. Each VPS is allocated a set portion of the server’s physical resources, and is functionally equivalent to a dedicated server, but with a much lower price tag. It may help to think of it as renting a flat, rather than a whole house. This definition was taken from https://www.ovhcloud.com/en-ie/vps/uc-vps-minecraft
