Imanity vs Carbon / Best **1.8** spigot fork

No, updating to a modern version is not an option. I'm curently looking at either imanityspigot or carbonspigot. I've heard that carbon performs better and is more configurable, but receives less frequent updates. I'm not too worried about updates as long as it's stable. I'm open to any other suggestions for spigot forks.

I've been a customer of Imanity for a decent time, I'd say it's the best spigot available right now Well, it can definitely be made right It's just not easy, not that it's "not a great experience" Also I don't think Carbon gets updated

Have you also tried carbon spigot?

No OCM is nowhere close to being 1:1 with normal 1.8 combat and it's nowhere close to being customizable enough Nope, but I can vouch for Imanity

ispigot is dead It was a solid product, but started having issues a while ago, not sure if those were solved but support has been dead since Imo I liked Carbon, currently thatโ€™s my go to, but thereโ€™s also AzuriteSpigot which was based on vspigot iirc, had a good start Still, depending on the use you want to give it, maybe just PandaSpigot is enough

Since youโ€™ve tried both, would you say carbon or imanityโ€™s better in terms of performance for a survival server

I remember ispigot outperforming everything with its async chunk loading, but it also makes it incompatible with plugins that rely on chunks, I think plotsquared was one of those incompatible at one point, I think it was fixed But like ai mentioned, while the project is not officially dead, support is not active anymore, if you find issues, you wonโ€™t get support

Yh it has, but ispigot was better when I tested it for the first time That was around a year ago, rn they have improved that iirc not I'm not sure if it's better or not as I no longer use ispigot You should join the carbon and azurite discords and ask if they have the features you need
