Assuming the Minecraft server runs on Arm64, you may want to try out Oracle Cloud free tier.

You can spin up a 4 core 24GB instance, the CPU is 4 dedicated cores and quite fast.

It does run on arm64, I am currently running a forge server with a few mods on this exact setup. It's just for a few friends, I don't think we've had more than 5 or 6 on at a time but it seems to be performant enough.

It's not perfect but it ended up being a better experience than we were having with minecraft realms.
