+## Which type of Geyser version is better, standalone or plugin?
+Because of optimizations that hook into the plugin platforms, plugin versions of Geyser are preferable compared to standalone Geyser. On Spigot, Velocity, and BungeeCord versions of Geyser, direct connections allow for faster loading times, lower latency, and accurate IP addresses without requiring Floodgate. Geyser-Spigot has further optimizations due to having direct world access, including lower memory usage and greater translation accuracy. However, large server networks might prefer standalone Geyser because it can be updated without needing to restart any other proxies or servers, and can offload resource usage onto seperate machines.

 ## What server versions does Geyser-Spigot support?
 The Geyser-Spigot plugin supports any Minecraft server version 1.12.2 or later. Any earlier version is not supported by the plugin - use a proxy version or the standalone build instead.
