Can you make the render distance higher?

Hey um, I just got an elytra on my SMP (definitely not using seed map) and it's pretty annoying that there's a chunk limit when flying to explore new mountains and I got almost killed due to the render distance being so low, how can I make the render distance higher? (also the server is basically singleplayer for me cuz my friend never joins and my PC is way too bad to actually run a single player world)

You can open the server.properties on the files page and increase the view distance a bit.

thanks I'll try it

It works! thanks
