CollideCraft Time Zero is a semi vanilla SMP that feels like you crashed into a broken dimension. There is light lore and weird rift events coming so it is not just a normal survival world.
The server has an active community with around five to ten players on and they use factions and proximity chat so you will hear people close to you and make alliances or enemies. A lot of the plugins are chosen by players so the community really shapes how the server feels.
There are frequent events and some power like Strength V4 and there is more stuff hidden under the surface that you can discover by playing. Both Java and Bedrock players can join and it is made to feel almost seamless.
You can get on the whitelist and keep your spot so it feels like a stable world and not just a random realm. If you want a semi vanilla server with some story and an active group this server is pretty cool.

Mythvale SiegeWar Towny With Real Rules

Mythvale is a new Java server that is launching soon and it is made for competitive town wars without the random raiding feel.
It uses Towny claiming and SiegeWar so fights have rules and actual strategy. You can battle for money and influence and dominance but land cannot be permanently stolen. There is also no offline land loss so builders do not get wrecked just because they logged off.
The map has custom built terrain and the world is meant to be permanent with plans to expand with new continents later. Combat stays vanilla and there is a simple beast kit. There is a player driven shop economy and progression is meant to stay balanced.
It sounds like they want founding towns and war leaders plus staff and long term players who want to help shape the server from day one.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPHardcore Island Survival Social Experiment

This is a survival server that is still being built and tested. Everyone starts on the same small island so you will run into other players fast.
Survival is harder than normal and resources are scarce and tied to certain regions. Progress is slower and more realistic. You begin with knapped stone tools then work up through copper bronze and iron. Gold and diamonds are rare so they feel special.
Crafting takes more effort. Leather and metals need processing and basic tools can require cords and bone needles. Pottery matters a lot for progress and metals are hard to get without trading.
It also feels like a social experiment. You cannot hide forever because land claims are limited and moving camps can be better early on. Your reputation matters and players will end up cooperating trading forming groups or trying to control the island.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPVoice Chat Vanilla Build Realms

I found a chill survival server with around 15 active players who just hang out and play a lot of Minecraft.
The main vibe is building together in themed areas and trying to make the world feel more immersive. There are six different groups and each one has its own style like Aztec and Egyptian builds underground builds sci fi and magic medieval modern city and Asian inspired.
They keep it close to vanilla with a few gamerule changes or plugins. There is no teleport no home and no economy.
You need the VoiceChatMod to join. The server is hosted in the UK and it is online 24 7 so it is great for UK and Europe players. Some people also play from Australia and the US without problems.
If you want in you apply with their form and they will DM you on Reddit if you get accepted.
