Can you grant someone else permission to start your Minehut server in Minecraft?
I am trying to decide what server hosting site would be better for a private survival Minecraft multiplayer world. I have already used Aternos before and it has a feature that lets you give permission to start your server to someone else, without giving them full permissions. Does Minehut have anything similar?
I have tried to research this on google, but the information is unclear.
First result when searching "Minehut server access" on google:

They can just do /join [SERVER]
Is this part of a URL or a Minecraft command? If it is part of a url, what is the rest of it? If it is a Minecraft command, how would they enter it with the server offline?

Anyone can start a server with "/join [server]" in the lobby.
What is "the lobby"?
Conclusion:
My research suggests that there is some way for someone to start the server (but not stop it) without full access, but I don't understand how this works.
What is the full process to start someone else's Minehut server and what is the process to allow someone else to start it?
As described on the minehut website under How do I join a server (https://minehut.com/go/howto-java), You can connect to the minehut lobby by adding mc.minehut.com
as a server.
This is where you can execute your commands etc.
Once you have connected to the lobby, you can execute the commands from within minecraft.
Get Started
Open Minecraft and click “Multiplayer”, then click “Add Server”. You’ll be taken to this screen, where you’ll enter “mc.minehut.com” into the “Server Address” field. Give it a name (such as “Minehut Lobby”), then click “Done.”
Almost There…
The Minehut Lobby will be added to your server list for easy access. Once it’s connected, select the server and click “Join Server”.
That’s It!
You will be automatically transported to the Minehut Lobby, where you can chat with whoever’s online and log into your server. Have fun!
