Disclaimer: I'm new to making a modded server. 1.20.1 dunno if it's fabric or forge tho. Modrinth. Planning on Saturday, so please help anyway you can

My Friend is making a server and is gonna host on Aternos. So I do not think we can have a lot of mods. I mean aternos is like good for vanilla but i dont know if it's good for moddded. anywhosie I wanted to see how many mods we can add before it turns chaotic.

Big Mods: Ad Astra, Create, Alex's Caves, Twilight Forest, Deeper and darker, Undergarden, any type of End or Nether Expansion mobs and structures mod,

Small Mods: Farmer's Delight, create, Origins, Origins , any decoration/more blocks mod (supplementary, chipped, etc.)

Also whats the issue of shaders, someone tell me I need to download some sort of essentials mod or some sort of optifine, Like If im using fabric or forge which do i need.
