1. Yes
2. Yes, but by default if no one is connected to the server it is paused
3. You either have to pay for it or leave your computer constantly on running it (or find another way to get a free server)
4. Not personally
5. Everyone has to have the same mods, or else they cannot connect
6. There is a shared blueprint library

5 & 6 might change in 0.17 - there are probably plans for you to be able to sync your mods with the server (a less manual way, although you will still have to have the same mods) similar to the sync mods to save feature available currently, and the blueprint library and GUI are being redesigned in 0.17.

Thanks for help. This informations will help me!
