ArcticMC is a new survival server that started just a couple days ago. It feels pretty chill and it is made for people who like to build and also want some faction drama.
It runs Towny and Factions so you can make a town claim land team up with other groups or try to take space for yourself. PvP matters here but they also use an honor system and it gets explained in their rules so fights do not turn into total chaos.
There is McMMO style skill leveling so you get stronger by playing and you can unlock special abilities as you level up. They also have custom items with furniture and it is entity based so they plan to limit it per chunk to help with lag.
The world uses Tectonic generation so the terrain looks more realistic with big mountains and valleys. The community is meant to be calm friendly and atmospheric so you can grind build explore or just hang out.

SolarPrisons Bedrock Prisons Open Playtest

SolarPrisons is a new Bedrock prisons server I found and it is made for Bedrock players only. It does not do cross play with Java players.
The team is looking for staff right now. The server is getting ready for an open playtest soon so it feels like a good time to join early.
They also talk about rewards for different things and top voters can get free ranks before the test season starts. It sounds like a growing community that wants more players to jump in.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPBlothera Hardcore-Lite Roleplay Survival Overhaul

Blothera is a vanilla like survival overhaul server that feels tough and slow in a good way. It uses a bunch of custom in house plugins and it is built around strategy and a world shaped by players.
It is not pay to win and there are no kits. There is no teleport spam and you cannot use coordinates so you have to actually learn the land. You get around with maps and compasses and banners can act like spawn points so outposts matter.
It runs a Hardcore Lite system where each death removes a max heart. You can get max hearts back with golden apples or by sleeping near a campfire. Natural regen from full hunger is turned off so healing is about stews potions golden apples and sleep.
The survival rules are harder too like crops needing sunlight and animals needing open sky to breed. Overcrowding can cause disease and progression pushes you to explore more than one kind of structure.
Every few weeks there is a Bloodmoon night where the sky turns red and stronger monsters show up even in lit areas. They can hear you so sneaking matters.
There is also an alignment system where killing players drops your alignment and can make you a bandit. Bandits are kill on sight and cannot join nations. Nations unlock after the Ender Dragon is defeated and they are run with books and lecterns with records of actions. If things get serious players can siege towns with cannons and airships.

HighTide SMP is a fresh survival server that just opened and it is for 18+ players. It is meant to feel like a tight crew where people actually talk and get to know each other.
It supports both Java and Bedrock so you can join from pretty much any device. The server is whitelist only so you have to apply and it is focused on trusted players and no drama.
There are community nights like game nights movie nights and even event nights and drinking nights. For gameplay it has graves so you do not lose your stuff as easily plus tree chop to speed up wood. There is a dynmap you can check on a website and CoreProtect to help stop griefing. Chests refill after about 5 minutes so more people can loot and there is a PvP toggle so you can turn duels on or off.
The world is planned to fully kick off on the first Saturday once 30 players have joined so getting in early lets you be part of the starting group.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPDOGEM SMP Fresh Vanilla PVP Start

I found a new pure survival server called DogeM and it is for Java players. It is a fresh start style server and it stays completely vanilla.
The vibe is chill friendly and also semi anarchy. People team up and you can fight and raid bases. PvP is open and even crystal fights are allowed if you grind for it. Tripwire dupers are allowed too so people can trade and get into battles.
It is locally hosted in NA and it gets really active on weekends. The world border is 50k so you have lots of space and you can still run into bases to mess with or set traps. There is a strict moderation team so players using unfair modded clients get caught fast. Admins are usually on every day.
They say there are around 30 to 50 players right now and they want more people to join and bring friends.

Committee based planningCommunity-Driven BuildsEarly lag controlfresh season starthard mode survival
Konohaven SMP is a semi vanilla Java server and Season 5 just started with a big focus on letting players make the choices.
This season players can form committees to plan stuff like spawn shopping districts and infrastructure. If you care about paths or how the nether hub should work you can start a group or do your own thing and try to make it happen.
The server is on hard difficulty and it has single player sleep plus a live map. Voice chat is optional with Simple Voice Chat and you do not need mods to join.
There is no set world border. Chunks will generate out to 1500 at the start to help with early season lag then you can explore freely. The seed will be public and the world gen will be tweaked to add new features.
Blaze and Caves Advancements are on with less chat spam. There is also an optional Origins datapack and the origins values are being adjusted so you will see what they are before you pick one.
