No Elytra server crashes on startup – what to do?

Is No Elytra compatible with datapack and fabric and forge and neoforge and quilt?
No Elytra officially supports datapack, fabric, forge, neoforge, quilt for Minecraft 1.21.10. 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 No Elytra – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if No Elytra consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
