Differences between HOKAS and other bot hosting services

This is an important distinction. While other bot hosting services generally rely on ready-made platforms such as Pterodactyl or Pelican, HOKAS uses its own custom-developed infrastructure. This allows us to customize our infrastructure more extensively to meet our needs and respond to potential issues much more quickly. With other bot hosting services, your existing server may be deleted and replaced with a newly created one when you stop and start it again or perform a restart directly. HOKAS works differently. When you restart your server or stop and start it again, your existing server (container) is preserved. It is simply stopped or restarted; your server is not deleted and recreated. Additionally, all commands you execute run directly inside your server and use the resources allocated to it. As a result, operations such as npm install may take longer, particularly on the free plan, where resource limits can affect performance and package download times.
