About
Scanning the entire internet,
one port at a time
slowstack finds Minecraft servers you didn't know existed. No submissions, no curation — just us, relentlessly pinging every corner of the internet.
Mission
The Mission
We scan the internet for Minecraft servers and index whatever we find. Nobody submits anything — if your server is reachable, we've probably already found it. This means you see servers that would never appear on a curated list, including the weird ones.
Server owners can opt out whenever. We only see what any Minecraft client sees — we're not special, just persistent.

What We Stand For
No surprises
Everything we collect is documented. No fine print, no asterisks. What you see is what we get.
Public Data Only
If your server isn't broadcasting it, we don't have it. Your private stuff stays private.
Server Owner Rights
Don't want to be listed? Email support@slowstack.tv and we'll make you disappear. No hard feelings.
Process
How We Work
Discovery
Our scanners probe IP ranges around the clock. If a new Minecraft server pops up, we'll know about it embarrassingly fast.
Status Queries
We re-ping active servers every few minutes. Yes, we're that server that keeps refreshing.
Data Processing
Server responses get parsed, indexed, and made searchable almost immediately. Speed is kind of our thing.
Background
Why This Exists
Most server lists are stuck in 2012. You submit your server, it sits on a list forever, and half the entries are dead. Cool system.
We took the opposite approach: scan everything, index what responds, and keep scanning. The result is a live view of what's actually running right now.
We only see what your Minecraft client sees when you add a server. Nothing more. Server owners can opt out anytime.
