So I am looking to setup a server for me and some of my friends. We don’t plan to have more than 10 players, but I do want some fabric mods.

I do not mind setting up a panel and whatnot on a VPS, might be worth noting that I do have a spare pc with 16GB Ram and an i5 8th gen but idk how costs compare, does anyone know?

Is it cheaper to setup/rent a VPS, rent a server from a provider or use a spare pc?
@Sun bear My internet is stable, and I can Port Forwards, thing is that some people I heard adviced against it

The short answer is that is can be dangerous
The longer answer is that it probably wont bite you if you have your firewall and anti-virus enabled
Realistically, if someone wants to hack anyone they wont go port sniffing
And if someone wanted to hack someone with a minecraft exploit, they would go after a bigger server like hypixel, 2b2t, and not you
Its just important that you only open the port for minecraft, dont mess with anything else
