I found this server called Chilltown and it feels super calm and relaxing. It is a long running survival SMP that wants a real vanilla style without all the crazy chaos.
The world has been around since 2019 and it has grown slowly over time. There are player made towns farms and different projects everywhere so it feels lived in and not like a fresh reset every week.
The server is for people who like to play survival at their own pace. The community is mostly adults and everyone is respectful so it does not feel toxic. It is also meant for players who are tired of pay to win stuff and constant resets.
Chilltown has a custom world that looks different from normal random terrain. There are seasons that change how the world looks. There are also custom mobs weapons tools and enchants but they are balanced and not super overpowered.
You can claim land with a simple chunk system so your builds stay safe. New players get a starter kit daily rewards and there is an optional tutorial to help you get started even if you want to play mostly solo.
The server runs on Java version 1.21.11 and it is made for people who want to relax build and stay on the same world for a long time.

I found a Survival+ SMP that is built around progression PvP and economy but it still feels like survival.
It has a full custom enchant system with rarity tiers. The enchants can do more than damage like slowness poison weakness wither knockback lifesteal and even temporary enchant disabling. Fights are more about your build and counterplay.
There are dungeons and bosses too. You enter through portals at /dungeons then clear rooms and fight Elites for strong loot and materials. Minions can drop rare loot keys and crafting materials. You can use Boss Totems in the right boss rooms to spawn bosses. There are both PvE and PvP dungeons.
The economy is based on playing. You can sell items and level up sell multipliers by type. Crops ores mob drops and spawners all give different ways to make money. You can buy basic materials in /shop or trade with players in /ah.
PvP is part of the world. Teams exist and raiding is allowed. Insiding and scamming items are allowed too. Cheats and unfair advantages are blocked so it stays about skill gear and builds.
There is also a cosmetic wrap system that changes how your gear looks without changing stats. The server has an in game guide RTP leaderboards and a clean custom GUI so it is easy to learn.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPChill 18+ SMP With Voice Chat
