I am curious about the difference between a dedicated server and a community server.

What's the difference?

A dedicated server, refers to a physical machine that is entirely dedicated to a single client or user. Unlike shared hosting, where multiple clients share resources on a single server, a dedicated server is exclusively used by a single client or organization.

The primary advantage of a dedicated server is that it provides greater control, customization, and flexibility than shared hosting or virtual private servers. A dedicated server allows the user to have complete control over the operating system, hardware, and software configuration, as well as the ability to run resource-intensive applications or services without worrying about performance degradation.

Well community servers can be a dedicated server. They could also be hosted servers, for instance a Nitrado Palworld server.
