Cobble and Commons is a community focused survival server that feels built for people who want to stay for a long time. The world is all about towns and shared projects and you can claim land and grow organized settlements using the Lands plugin.
The server has a deep progression system called AuraSkills. You level up things like mining farming and fighting and get passive powers and stat boosts as you play more. There is also an overhauled rank system with two different rank paths so you can pick the style that fits you. Ranks use build requirements so you always have clear goals and something new to work on.
Building is a big part of the server. There is tons of custom furniture and cosmetics so your base and character can actually look different from vanilla Minecraft. The player market is fully driven by players and you can set up your own shopkeeper stall and trade with others instead of a server shop.
The server runs seasonal events. Right now there is a winter event with Christmas themed tools pets and cosmetics that are only available for a limited time. The next big event is boat races with custom tracks leaderboards and high tier prizes.
Overall it feels like a friendly SMP that pushes you to build towns trade with others and slowly grow stronger over time instead of rushing through the game.

Whitelisted Chill Vanilla SMP 1.21.3

I found a whitelisted vanilla survival SMP on 1.21.3 that is meant to be chill and small. It has a few tiny qol plugins but it still tries to feel like normal vanilla.
The vibe is relaxed and casual and it is about building exploring and just hanging out with people. Rules are light and you are not allowed to grief builds.
PvP is allowed so if you want fights you can do that and it is fair game. The world border is set to 10k for now and the server is located in Germany. All ages can join and new features might get added if the community wants them.

This is a Kingdoms SMP that is starting on Friday the 20th of February at 6pm GMT.
It is a roleplay factions server where players make their own kingdoms. You can declare war on other kingdoms or stay peaceful and just build up your place.
The world uses a custom 10k by 10k map. The nether and the end are turned off.
There are weekly events and they are trying to build an active loyal community. There are already multiple kingdoms made and around 20 players waiting. Joining early matters because there are custom structures with loot so early explorers can get ahead.

This server is all about players making their own towns and their own stories. Nothing feels scripted so it is mostly whatever the community decides to do.
PvP is a big part of it and it is meant to feel real and dynamic. If you like building a place with people then dealing with rivals later this server is that kind of vibe.
They are also looking for more active members so it seems like they want the world to feel busy and alive.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPBlitz PvP Kill Race Seasons

This is a PvP server that runs in 2 week seasons where the goal is to get the most kills.
It is made for people who get bored of the same world all the time and want constant fighting and a fresh reset.
Each season also changes things with a new twist like no elytra or switching the difficulty like easy mode or hard mode so it feels different every time.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPUnscripted Modded SMP With Published Mods

I found a modded Minecraft SMP that is inspired by content style servers but it is not scripted.
The main idea is you can publish your own mods for the server. To join you have to fill out an application form.
They also say you should not put any personal info in the form.
