I found SwiftServers and it is a Minecraft hosting place that is actually free to use. It is made for people who want to start a server fast without waiting in queues or dealing with a messy setup.
They built their own control panel from scratch and it feels like it is meant to be simple and quick. You can spin up a vanilla SMP with friends or run a Paper server and get going in seconds. It also supports Spigot.
They talk a lot about safety too with DDoS protection and a backup system so you can create backups and restore them fast.
The plan lists 1.5 GB dedicated RAM 8 cores on an AMD EPYC Rome CPU 10 GB NVMe SSD storage and a 1 Gbit uplink. They also say they do not cap player slots.
It says no credit card is needed and there are no hidden fees.

OneCraft is a survival server that feels like vanilla but with extra stuff to find and explore. The cool part is you can join with a normal vanilla client since the mods all run on the server.
The world feels more alive because there are lots of new vanilla style structures and biomes that look more detailed. While you mine you can find custom loot that depends on the biome and there are tons of new items to discover.
If you like building you can protect your area with a simple land claiming system so your builds stay safe. The server also has Discord chat connected and it supports voice chat.
It runs on dedicated hardware in Canada East and it is meant to be stable and lag free. It also says it is not pay to win and is more about making a friendly community.

New Kronos is a geopolitical SMP that is about players making nations and fighting or teaming up over land.
The server is starting soon and it already has over 40 members. More people are expected to join fast so getting in early matters if you want first picks on territory.
Nation creation is not confirmed yet but applications are supposed to open within a week. The world map is 20k by 20k and it is planned to expand as the player count grows.
It uses mods like Brewery and Immersive Aircraft to make survival feel more interesting and help with travel and roleplay.

Anarchy Network is a semi anarchy survival server that tries to feel like real vanilla Minecraft. It started on October 11th 2024 and it is hosted in New York City in the USA.
The server is online all the time and it supports Java versions from 1.7.2 up to 1.21.11. They recommend 1.21.10 so you do not run into issues.
The world is huge with a border set to 2 million blocks. There are no map resets and no pay to win. PvP and griefing are allowed so you can play however you want.
There is no teleporting but you can use /spawn so people far out are not stuck away from everything. Nether roof access is allowed. Phantoms are removed and only half the players are needed to skip the night.
They do not allow exploits lag machines duping spamming or harassment and racial slurs in chat.

Billionaire City is a Minecraft network with a play test open right now.
Players can join and decorate their own property or apartment. Your place can be rated and you can try to win up to 450.000 B$.
The winners also get the right to name an area of Billionaire City.
