GOOMB SMP is a vanilla amplified survival world that just reset about two weeks ago. Everyone is building bases in crazy tall terrain and the world border is 6k by 6k so people are pretty close to each other.
Because players are close it feels like a real community. People are setting up shops and planning different base ideas for when the border expands more. There is a lot of building going on and it already feels like a busy season 2 world.
The discord is super active. People share screenshots of the amplified terrain and talk in voice chat about trades and base plans. VCs are usually full of players just hanging out and talking while they play.
The rules are strict about being respectful. No hate speech no NSFW and no drama. No griefing no stealing and no unconsented PvP. You have to be mature and use common sense if you want to stay.
To get on the server you apply first then wait for a mod to review it. After you are accepted you send your name to get whitelisted. It feels like a curated community that actually cares about the world and about each other.
If you want a fresh amplified world with close neighbors and a busy discord this server fits that really well.
Hermit Style SMP With Proximity Chat

All Outta Blocks is a community centered survival server that is made by the players for the players.
It feels like a Hermitcraft style SMP with a diamond based economy and a shopping district. There are also public builds and big projects that people work on together.
Most players use proximity chat so it is really easy to talk while you play. The server also has homes plus some cosmetic and quality of life or fun plugins that get added from community requests and polls.
The goal is to keep the vanilla experience while still letting the server grow if the community wants it. It is Minecraft 1.21.11 on Java only. It is whitelisted and 18+ only. Online players are usually around 5 to 20 during the day and there are hundreds of regular active players and groups looking for new people.

I found a Minecraft server that is trying to feel different and not like the same copy paste servers you scroll past all day.
It is a new server that started about 4 days ago so it feels easy to jump in and not be super behind everybody.
It is modded and it uses a modpack with around 100 mods but it is supposed to not be too heavy. They said events are coming soon too.
They welcome basically any type of player like builders explorers and miners. They also do not care if you have a real or cracked account. The admin is also looking for people who can help manage the server.

I found a server where you can create a nation or join one and start making your own story.
The world is a 1 to 500 scale replica of Earth so traveling and exploring feels like a big deal.

It works on Java and Bedrock and it also supports cracked so more people can play.
