Before being a plugin developer, I've actually used BisectHosting before. Their servers run smoothly (when given enough RAM, of course) and they respond to their support tickets super fast, 24/7. They continued to assist me swiftly own downloading my data and worlds even after my server had expired!
With BisectHosting, you'll be able to get your own server in just a few clicks!
Interested? Then here's a deal for you! Click the banner or the link below to get a 25% discount off your first month when buying any of their gaming servers! It also supports my development as well, take it as an alternative way to donate while getting your very own Minecraft server as well!
P.S. Using the link or clicking the banner rather than the code supports me more! (Costs you no extra!)
Support for this program is minimal as I don't have too many free time to work on it, however, I will still try to update it for each new version of Minecraft.
About If your server always has a few players that AFK forever and causes a waste of server resources, or if you want something that can hold lots of players like a waiting room or server lobby, you can consider using a Limbo server.
This standalone server program can act as any other backend server in your bungeecord network (tho can also work without, options in server.properties).
Currently, the program is still under development and things will continue to be added.
Limbo Server is built against 1.21.3 and wouldn't work with other versions though you can use something like ViaVersion on bungeecord to allow other versions to connect.
A small .schem can be loaded as the default world (the current sponge/worldedit schematic format) and player skins are also supported.
Limbo Server also has an API which allows you to create simple plugins and change the behaviour of the Limbo, such as listening to chat events, adding custom commands, sending custom packets, or even adding more worlds.

Code (Text):
java -jar Limbo.jar --nogui
3. Edit the server.properties 4. Restart the server 5. Set up and link the server to your bungeecord proxy if you use that (Remember to set bungeecord to true in step 3)
