Exodus is a semi vanilla survival server that is all about geopolitics and nations. It is more focused on geopol stuff than roleplay so you can get into strategy and politics if you want.
The map has a 5000 by 5000 world border so resources are limited and people are pushed to trade instead of hoard. Some players like to fight and some just want to build and do politics and both are fine here. You do not have to be good at pvp to play.
There are a few clear rules. No griefing. No duping. No x ray. The nether and the end are closed so everyone stays in the overworld. Farms have to be hidden which makes bases feel secret and sneaky. There are also rules that are supposed to make pvp better and more fair.
I think this server feels like a small world where every move matters because of the border and limited stuff. If you like survival with politics and strategy this looks like a cool place to try.

I found a hardcore SMP where you only get one life and that is it. If you die you are done so every fight feels scary.
It is semi vanilla with a vanilla anarchy vibe and it has minimal rules so players can do what they want. People can make alliances hunt other players or try to survive alone.
The world is huge with a 300000 by 300000 map. It is also not pay to win so everyone starts equal. It runs on Minecraft 1.21.11 and the server start is set for 3 7 26. The full rules are in their discord.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFresh Towny Factions SMP With Honor PVP
ArcticMC is a new survival server that mixes Towny and factions so people can build towns make alliances and fight for land.
PVP matters here but it is meant to stay fair since the server uses an honor system that is explained in their rules.
It also has McMMO skills so you level up things like mining combat and potions while you play and unlock special abilities.
The world uses Tectonic generation so the terrain looks more realistic with big mountains and valleys. There are custom items too including furniture and it is entity based so they plan to limit it per chunk to help with lag.
The vibe is calm and friendly and more about chilling building and exploring without constant chaos.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPPublic Lifesteal SMP With Friendly Staff
I found a public lifesteal SMP that is open for anyone to join.
It sounds like the main thing is lifesteal and player fights but it is also meant to be fun and not toxic.
The server says it has friendly staff and they want people to come hang out and play.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCave-Only Semi-Anarchy Season 2 Begins
