It’s really hard to find servers which actually use alternate auth servers like ely.by or littleskin.cn like as actual auth servers and not just a skin server.
I think this is largely for two main reasons.
- It’s way more complicated and less easy to set up authlib-injector on a server
- There’s pressure and stigma in English speaking Minecraft communities not to.
If it were as easy to setup on servers as it is on the client, we might see servers that use it in non-English countries like Brazil, Russia, and China. As it is though it’s too complex and a password mod that remembers your client username is simpler to set up.
Offline mode servers are way less common in English speaking communities for the second reason. I really wish more people would build them and tell the neoliberals in the Minecraft community whining about piracy to shove it.


Yeah the problem is that using authlib-injector to change the auth on the server is that it only works with that auth server. If you use ely.by it’ll only work with ely.by.
That coupled with the fact that Authlib-injector is prohibitively difficult to set up on servers compared to clients is why people running servers meant for non-premium accounts just use offline mode with a password mod.
Also littleskin.cn is another auth server but it seems like it’s only used for skins. Theoretically it could be used for servers but it’s definitely not it’s primary usecase.
