BetterF3 server crashes on startup – what to do?

Is BetterF3 compatible with fabric and forge and neoforge and quilt?

BetterF3 officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge, quilt for Minecraft 26.1.2, 26.1.1, 26.1. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with BetterF3 – how to optimize performance?
