Ordinary SMP is a vanilla Java survival server with a small tight community that actually feels alive. People from different places log in to build big bases explore new areas and just hang out.
The server is always updated and right now it runs Minecraft 1.21.11 so you get all the newest features. It is whitelisted so the players are usually respectful and you do not get random chaos all the time.
There is grief protection using a tool that tracks what players do so if someone steals or breaks stuff staff can see it and fix it. That makes building huge projects feel a lot safer.
The server has some extra cool things like a live map so you can see the world from a browser and a custom resource pack with special cosmetics trophies and rewards that fit a HermitCraft style world. There is also voice chat support and custom audio so talking and playing with other people feels way more immersive.
They run server events like pvp battles build contests and big group projects so there is usually something going on if you like playing with others. If you just want to chill build or mess with redstone you can do that too and still be part of the community.
If you want a friendly vanilla style server with protection and regular events Ordinary SMP feels like a good place to make a long term base and meet new people.

This is a semi vanilla survival smp where the world feels pretty close to normal Minecraft but with some helpful extras. The main focus is on survival with a strong player economy and a calm pve vibe.
Instead of some weird money system you trade with diamonds. Players make shops and you can open a shop menu to look around fast. It feels like a real shopping area run by the community.
You can claim land with a golden shovel so your builds stay safe. There is no griefing allowed and there is also no keep inventory so dying still matters and survival feels real.

This server is called BetaBuddies and it runs Minecraft beta 1.7.3. It tries to feel like Minecraft did back in 2011. Everything is vanilla so it feels really simple and classic.
The community is supposed to be small but active. The whole point is to just chill and be creative with other people who like the old version of the game.
There are clear rules. No griefing and no stealing and no cheating. You are not allowed to post gross or offensive stuff like gore or racist and sexist memes. People also have to be kind to each other because bullying is not allowed at all.

This server is called MinecraftOffline and it feels like a laid back survival world with a twist. The owners use a bunch of custom plugins so it does not feel like plain vanilla.
You can set a home and teleport back with simple commands so exploring is less annoying. There is also a teleport request system so you can warp to friends instead of everyone walking forever.
The big thing is lifesteal. When you kill other players you gain hearts and when you die you lose hearts. If you lose all your hearts you get banned so PvP actually matters a lot. New players get a one hour grace period where they do not lose hearts so they can settle in first.
There is a combat plugin that blocks commands while you are fighting and it punishes combat logging. If someone logs out in a fight they get replaced by an npc that can be killed and it drops all their items.
The server tries to block extreme speed cheats and also has a basic anti spam system for chat. It is not perfect but it stops the worst stuff.
There is an in game store where you can spend vote tokens on custom name colors and custom motds. The stats system tracks playtime kills and deaths and gives rewards when you hit certain milestones.
Players can also skip the night by typing one command so you are not stuck waiting for morning if enough people want to sleep.
