/list
Show every player currently connected to the server.
Overview
What is the /list command?
The /list command shows who is currently online, plus the player count against the server's maximum. With the uuids argument it also prints each player's UUID, which is handy for admin tools and config files.
It's a staple of day-to-day server moderation when you need a quick headcount.
When to use it: Use /list to see who's online right now and how many of the available slots are filled.
