This server is called MODMIX Factions and it feels like old school factions but updated. It is made for players who like to grind fight and build real bases.
You can raid with TNT and obsidian does not last forever so no base is unraidable. There are normal faction land claims but you always have to watch your defenses.
There is a MCMMO style skill system so you level up stuff like swords mining and acrobatics as you play. You can do duels use player vaults and stack spawners to farm better.
You earn your rank by playing and using XP in game money and your skills. It runs on the latest Minecraft version 1.21.8 and you can join on Java or Bedrock.
Overall it feels like classic factions brought into modern Minecraft and it seems aimed at players who want pvp grinding and serious base building.

Australian Vanilla Anarchy No Rules

I found LegacyMC and it is a vanilla anarchy survival server that tries to keep everything raw and open. There are no rules and it is a true open world where players decide what happens.
It started in June 2025 so the world is still new enough for people to make a name for themselves. There are no resets and there is no land protection so building and losing bases is part of the deal.
PvP is on and griefing and raiding are allowed. There is no teleporting and no admin interference so you have to travel and survive the normal way.
It is hosted on dedicated hardware in Australia for low latency for Australia and New Zealand players. It also says it is cost covered with no monetisation and no pay to win.

I found a chill whitelisted vanilla survival server for 1.21.3 with a small community vibe. It stays mostly vanilla and it has a few tiny qol plugins.
The rules are light and the mood is relaxed. You can build explore and just hang out. Griefing builds is not allowed but PvP is fair game.
The world border is set to 10k for now. All ages are welcome and the server is hosted in Germany. New features might get added if the community asks for them.

FabricCraft is a survival server that sticks to real vanilla mechanics because it runs on Fabric. It feels like the kind of world where your farms and redstone actually work the way you planned.
It is semi anarchy so you get a lot of freedom with only a few rules. There are no land claims and there are no world resets so the map stays persistent and the story is made by players through alliances trade rivalries and raids.
Hacked clients and mods that give an advantage are not allowed. There is also a simple voice chat mod you can use.
Griefing is banned within 1k of spawn and it is handled by active moderation instead of claims.
