After Update W53, they have changed how server hosting worked. Previously, everyone could host the world, no matter what, with no cost. World was cloud-shared and first person on the server that day would be the host. No need for file-sharing.
Starting from W53, they completely removed this feature (which was there from the start), forcing people to either buy dedicated server or to share world saves (which is annoying). And there would be only one single host.

This made a lot of people mad and upset. Myself included. But I had to change the review, because it's now W173 update, and they are still going. We are still getting more and more features, things, items, and mainly, free updates (including some extra paid DLCs). So they care about the game, they listen to the community. It's a shame that original server sharing is no longer there because it would make this one of the best games in recent years.
