# Server Guide

A server is essentially a computer hosted by a company, that you have access to. This can have a few different advantages and disadvantages to just using your own computer.\
\
**Why you should use a server:**\
\- You only have a Mac (most bots are windows only)\
\- Your Computer or Wifi is slow / old\
\- You want to be able to access your computer at all times without worrying about power costs\
\
**24/7 Server Providers:**\
\- [Toxic Servers](https://www.toxicservers.de/collections/servers)\
\- [Strafe Servers](https://strafeservers.com/index.php?rp=/store/strafe-cloud)
