From a basement server
to a real hosting company
LaxelHost started the way most great projects do — with one person, one Minecraft server, and a lot of frustration. We tried five hosting providers in a year. They were either too expensive, too slow, or both. The "support" was a 24-hour wait for a copy-pasted email.
So we did what any annoyed engineer would do — we built our own. We rented a single Ryzen box in Germany, tuned the network, wrote our own automation around Pterodactyl, and started hosting servers for friends. They told their friends. Word got around. Today we run 100+ servers and still pick up tickets the same hour.
