Forseti is a small but active vanilla survival server and it keeps things simple. It is hard difficulty and it runs on the original Mojang software so you are not dealing with plugins or big mechanic changes.
There is no land protection and no minigames and no real money shop. It also tries to avoid constant chat spam so it feels more chill.
Since there is no grief prevention you should move far away from spawn if you do not want to get raided. The main rules are no racism or bullying and no cheats or exploits or lag machines. The server language is English.
You can vote using the in game links to earn XP rewards. You can manage a team with a web UI and player heads can drop so you can build a trophy collection. There is also a Warp Book so you can jump between spawn and your bed.

Semi Anarchy Vanilla Survival No Resets

I found Anarchy Network and it is a semi anarchy survival server that tries to stay really close to vanilla. It started on October 11th 2024 and it is hosted in New York City.
It is online all the time and it lets you join on Java versions from 1.7.2 up to 1.21.11. It says 1.21.11 is the best version to use so you do not run into problems.
The world is huge with a 2 million block border and there are no map resets. There is no pay to win and there is no teleporting around. Griefing and pvp are allowed and the only command that is allowed is spawn so people far out can come back.
Nether roof is allowed and phantoms are removed and only half the players are needed to skip the night. The server still has rules though like no exploits no lag machines no duping no spamming and no harassment or racial slurs in chat.

Fishing is a big deal here with over 100 unique textured fish to catch and collect. There are also 60 fishing mobs to kill which makes it more than just sitting still.
