Prefer resources whose maintainers clearly document Folia compatibility instead of assuming Paper support is enough.
Folia server plugins
Folia plugins need real Folia support.
Folia changes server threading around independent regions, so a plugin that works on Paper is not automatically safe on Folia. This hub focuses on resources intended for Folia and the compatibility questions worth checking before deployment.
Threading assumptions matter on Folia.
The key question is whether a plugin is designed for Folia's scheduler and region model, especially when it touches entities, chunks, teleportation or shared state across regions.
Plugins need to use appropriate region, entity or global scheduling patterns rather than unsafe main-thread assumptions.
Teleportation, global caches, shared collections and world-wide mechanics deserve extra testing because they can cross region boundaries.
How to test a plugin on Folia.
Test the behaviors that move players or data between regions, not just basic commands. A clean startup does not prove the plugin is safe during real concurrent gameplay.
Check whether Folia is explicitly listed by the plugin or creator and which Minecraft versions were tested.
Test teleports, moving entities, chunk changes and player actions across distant areas of the world.
Watch logs for scheduler violations and test repeated actions with multiple players in separate regions before production use.
Quick answers
Useful questions before you choose.
Can every Paper plugin run on Folia?
No. Folia's regionized threading changes assumptions many Paper plugins make about synchronous world and entity access.
What does Folia-compatible mean?
It generally means the plugin is written and tested around Folia's scheduling and region safety requirements rather than merely loading without an error.
Is Folia always faster than Paper?
Not for every workload. Folia is designed around regionized parallelism and is most useful when your server architecture and plugin stack can safely take advantage of it.
Use plugins that respect the Folia model.
