My mind went to 2b2t as well. Unfortunately players still tend to congregate somewhat around spawn. Perhaps Folia lets them raise the server cap to a degree, but it appears here that you still can’t have more than a couple hundred players in the same area. Allowing more than that limit on the server invites a mess in the event enough of those players end up in the same place for whatever reason.

I wonder if the result would be that it would just lag out for spawn but players outside the area would enjoy a full performance game. That seems like an acceptable penalty.
