hey is it possible to host a server on a website?
like with FTP or something?
cause that would mean, that my server could be open 24/7 :D

This is a mostly frozen copy of the Minetest forums through 2017. If you know phpBB3 and would like to host any G-rated forum here, you can email: me@minetest.org If the email doesn't work, find out who's taken over Final Minetest from OldCoder and email them to get write access or an admin account.
I should have set this up years ago. But it's no tale of woe.
Whether the temperature is high or low, regardless of cold winds blow,
away we go like Edgar Allan Poe, on now with the show. BTW rhymes are welcome.

FTP Server
Are you saying that I put an abnormal brain into a seven and a half foot long, fifty-four inch wide GORILLA?

Nope, you would need a dedicated server or at least a VPS. Your basic shared web hosts don't give you shell access, and if they do they don't allow running game servers or any long running process. Even some VPS don't allow running game servers because of their resource usage. The cheapest VPS I've seen that doesn't explicitly restrict game servers in their terms is http://wooservers.com/ I haven't used them but I'm considering it. I have a RocketVPS server but they explicitly restrict game servers.
