Kindred Vale is a chill survival server that is all about no grief and feeling safe. I like how it is focused on people who just want to build and explore without worrying someone will ruin their stuff. It feels like a cozy place where both new and experienced players can fit in.
The server is on its second season and they reset every three months. That makes the world feel fresh and keeps people excited to start new bases and projects. Right now they are also planning a Valentines build battle so there are fun events mixed in with normal survival.
There are special skills you can level like mining and defense. When your skills get higher the mobs get tougher too so the game is not boring. You can also disenchant items using an anvil and books which is really useful when you get the wrong enchant.
The owners sometimes run big server boosts like extra experience skill boosts and potion effects. There are monthly events and weekly key hunts so there is always something happening if you want more than just mining and building.
Players can make their own shops and set warps to them so trading with others is easy. The server also listens to suggestions from the community so players can help shape how things work. It feels like a respectful community where people care about creativity teamwork and having fun together.

RedLine Season 2 is a semi anarchy survival server that just reopened with a full reset. It runs on 1.21.11 and it is built for people who like real risk and real fights.
The world border is 12k by 12k. Griefing stealing killing and prisoning are allowed. Hacking duping and exploiting are not allowed to a point and they explain more in the server.

The server has a RedLine System where you can collect special weapons like maces swords and axes with names and skins if you use their custom resource pack. Each set has one of each weapon so people race to craft them.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPPermanent Vanilla SMP With Chill Events

I found a vanilla Minecraft SMP that started a few days ago and it already has a solid playerbase. The world is meant to be permanent so you can build big stuff and keep it there.
Most people are in their 20s and everyone seems pretty chill. The staff also wants to run small events like civilization and some modded and unmodded events besides the main vanilla world.
They want more people so it can feel mid sized and so there can be more builds going up all the time.

I found a small semi vanilla SMP that is in testing right now.
They plan to fully start in about a week so it feels like a good time to hop in early and help check things out.
It is survival multiplayer with that mostly normal vanilla feel.

I found a Java lifesteal server that is planned to launch around February 28th but the time is not set yet so it could change.
It is semi anarchy so you can raid and grief bases but there are still rules you have to follow.
They said there will be no crystal pvp. The server is on 1.21.11. You can also request plugins through their plugins channel.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPREAL Resource Economy Survival Server

I found this server that is all about real resource limits so the economy actually matters. It feels more natural and you are supposed to think about what gets mined and who controls it.
People can lean into different roles like running underground production and big building projects. You can also focus on the combat supply chain with weapons and armor or go for the underworld route and control the healing economy.
There is also a tooling path with premium tools and special enhancements. The server has a must see map too and it even has a big train so exploring it is pretty cool.WebsiteDiscord
