GGcraft

This is a small cross play SMP that runs modded gameplay without making you download anything. The mods are server sided and picked by hand so it still feels like normal Minecraft but with better world generation and a bunch of quality of life stuff that should have been in the game already. There is also more of an endgame to work toward.

The server tries hard to avoid the usual multiplayer junk like microtransactions crates ranks and economy stuff. It is meant to feel simple and real not like a store.

The community is small but active and the Discord stays alive even when people take breaks. The mod team and the core players are known for being helpful.

Griefing is not allowed and they can rollback problems if something happens. PVP is consent only. If you want more chaos there is an anarchy lite dimension where you can loot and fight.

Moderation is pretty laid back but hate speech and harassment are not tolerated. They also care a lot about keeping it safe for LGBTQ players. Joining means you read the rules and follow the whitelist steps.
