This is a Java survival server that wants everything to feel legit. Every block on the world is mined and placed by players so the map feels really handmade and not like it came from random plugins.
The server is semi vanilla and uses custom plugins for basic commands and land protection. It does not use the common plugins that everyone sees everywhere so the gameplay has its own style. The staff try to keep it feeling like normal Minecraft but still protected.
The community is open to players who are 13 or older. It is not a strict family friendly server but there are rules so chat does not get too wild. People are expected to be respectful and kind to each other.
The rules say no super offensive language and no politics or other big controversial topics. No hacking or cheating or abusing exploits. You are not allowed to mess with other players builds and you should not build too close to them. There is also no advertising allowed.
The server has been running for a long time with multiple seasons so it feels like a place that will not vanish suddenly. The owners want it to be a main Minecraft home where players can stay for a long time and have a real history. The players get a say in what happens and the server exists more for the community than for the staff.

BeeSMP is an 18 plus semi vanilla SMP that is still getting set up but already feels like a cool project.
The whole idea is to make a long term survival server where players help decide what it becomes. People are joining early to share ideas for features rules and events and the staff actually want feedback.
The gameplay is semi vanilla with some light quality of life stuff planned and simple voice chat so talking with other players should be easier. It is a whitelisted server and they want a chill and mature community that likes to build and work together.
The server is planned for Java Edition 1.21.10 and the staff seem pretty active and involved with the community even before launch.

The Anthill SMP is a vanilla style server with some nice quality of life plugins. It runs on version 1.21.11 and it focuses on normal survival gameplay.
The server is made for players who are 17 or older. It is based in the UK but they are happy to have players from all over the world. The community is meant to feel fair and welcoming and the goal is to meet new friendly people.
They have anti griefing measures so your builds and items should be safe. There are also helpful plugins like player made shops with ShopKeepers and things that make trees and ores easier to gather like tree feller and vein mine. There is BlueMap for seeing the world and chest sorting and other optimisations to make the game smoother.

I found this server called Anarchy Network and it is a semi anarchy Minecraft world that feels really close to vanilla. It started on October 11th 2024 and it is always online.
You can join with a lot of Java versions from 1.7.2 up to 1.21.10 and they say it works best on 1.21.10. The world border is huge at 2 million blocks so you can run super far away and still keep going.
The server has no map resets and no teleporting at all except for a simple spawn command so people very far away are not stuck alone forever. There is no pay to win stuff and griefing and PvP are totally allowed so you have to be careful who you trust.
It is mostly vanilla but they removed phantoms which is nice and they let people use the nether roof. Only half the people on the server need to sleep to skip the night so you are not stuck in the dark all the time.
Even though it is semi anarchy it still has a few rules. You cannot use exploits or lag machines or duping. You also cannot spam chat or harass people or use racial slurs. So it is chaotic but not totally toxic.
Overall it feels like a raw survival server where players control almost everything and staff only stops the really broken stuff.

Headrest SMP is a paper Minecraft server that runs on version 1.20.10. It uses a few quality of life plugins so the game still feels close to normal survival but with some nicer features.
The server has a strong focus on pvp and community. There is a safe zone at spawn where people can build shops and hang out. In spawn players can also talk with each other using a simple voice chat mod.
Outside the safe zone players can fight and start wars. Some of the plugins are no elytra during combat and combat log so fights are more fair. There is also a sit command and more small features that make it feel more cozy.
The community aims to be a place where everyone can be friends build bases and still have big battles when they want. You can join to make friends or you can betray them and take part in wars and server lore.
The server runs on a dedicated machine with 20 GB of ram and a 5800x3d cpu to help keep lag away during fights and big events.

Beocraft is a hermitcraft style survival server that has been around in some form for about 8 years. It runs on fabric and they do not use paper fixes. The world is meant to be long term and the current map has been going for months with a lot of playtime.
The server is focused on classic survival with everything built by hand. It is made for people who like to relax and work on big builds over time. Griefing and cheating are not tolerated at all and they are very clear about that. The staff wants a fair and chill place to play.
The community is described as vibrant and experienced. Players seem to enjoy building and playing together and the server has strong hardware and is hosted in Europe. It is also looking for content creators who already have a following on YouTube or Twitch and want to get paid to make content about the server.
If you like long term survival worlds and a serious no nonsense rule set this server feels like a good fit.
