| Spec score · Minecraft Server Proxy Software | 7.5 (#11) | 8.3 (#1) |
| Deployment | The project provides a deployable Endlink.jar that runs with Java and says building requires JDK 21 or newer. | Gate can be installed as a prebuilt binary, with Go tooling, in Docker, or on Kubernetes. |
| Integrations | Endlink is built and tested with Endstone backends and can also connect to Java servers through Geyser. | Gate's managed Bedrock mode uses Minekube's GeyserLite runtime and includes Floodgate protocol support. |
| Purpose | Endlink is a Velocity-style proxy for Minecraft Bedrock that keeps players connected while they switch between backend servers. | Gate is a lightweight, cloud-native, open-source proxy for Minecraft servers. |
| Security | EndlinkGuard verifies backend joins through an HMAC-signed handshake and rejects joins that did not come through the proxy. | Gate documents AES CFB-8 encryption, rate limiting, quota management, and RSA-based online-mode authentication. |
| Version support | The README says to run the current Minecraft release on both ends and describes older-version translation beyond the short backend update gap as unstable and incomplete. | Gate supports Minecraft versions 1.7 through the latest version and supports Forge mods, BungeeCord compatibility, and Velocity forwarding. |
