MistyMC is a relaxed SMP that sticks to true vanilla survival. It is made for players who just want Minecraft the way it is with a friendly community around them.
The server is strict about being no pay to win. There are no claims and no griefing so people can build and play without worrying all the time.
It also supports Java and Bedrock crossplay and even works for console players. Staff are active and helpful and the world is long term and never resets.
They also keep the vanilla feel since they do not use plugins that change how vanilla gameplay works.
I found a Bedrock Realm that has been going strong for over two years and it still feels alive.
The community keeps growing and they want new people to join in. It sounds like a place where you can meet players and make friends while you play.
They also do daily updates and run giveaways in their Discord. The main idea is to hang out and have a great time while you start your own adventure.
I found a server that feels like a small experiment with big consequences. It starts as a small group and it never goes over 10 players so every person matters.
It is like a life steal vibe but without stealing hearts from others. When you die you pretty much lose 2 hearts and after you die 5 times total you get banned so you have to play careful.
It supports voice chat and that can make random alliances and betrayals happen fast. There are no land claims so bases can get raided and fights can pop off when people get geared.
There are no resets and there are no shops teleports or homes. It is just survival and whatever drama the players create.
VitaNova is a semi vanilla SMP that tries to keep the normal Minecraft feel but adds a lot of extra stuff to work toward. It supports Java and Bedrock together and it runs on 1.21+.
The server has a growing economy vibe and it pushes progression with quests. You can earn rewards and unlock ranks just by playing and it is meant to be fully free to play with no pay to win locks.
Building is safer because you can claim land with a protection plugin so your stuff is harder to mess with. There is also a custom world to explore with custom structures to find.
If you like grinding side systems there is custom fishing with rarities and tournaments plus upgraded farming and custom enchantments for combat and mining. They also mention regular events and an active friendly community.
Bagel SMP is a semi vanilla survival server with pvp and raiding. It is made for players who want action but still want it to feel like normal Minecraft.
The staff listens a lot and they want suggestions and feedback from the community. They also run events so there is usually something going on.
They have a low tolerance for cheating and rule breaking. Bases can get raided so you should hide your stuff well and play smart.
The server also talks about maybe doing a peaceful option later. They want to hear more from players first.
