Foggy Willows is a true vanilla survival server for people who want Minecraft the real way. It runs on the normal minecraft server jar with nothing extra added.
The spawn is simple and not full of confusing stuff. You just join and start playing. It is hard mode so nights and mobs can be rough.
There are no plugins and no datapacks. That means no tp and no sethome. There is also no world border so you can travel as far as you want.
Players are expected to handle their own social issues. You can build what you want and play how you want. Technical players are welcome too.
The server stays on the latest stable vanilla version. It is self hosted and it does not take donations.
CozyCraft is a calm survival server where people build for the long run. It feels more old school and it is made for players who like slow and careful progress.
The server is cooperative and there is no PvP. It also has a forever world so there are no map resets or seasonal wipes.
It keeps things mostly vanilla with minimal plugins and it does not do pay to win stuff. It seems like a good place if you want a laid back community and big building projects over time.
You can join on Java or Bedrock.
The New Life SMP is a whitelist community survival server for players 16+ and it is going into a new season.
It is a vanilla plus setup on Minecraft 1.21 to 1.21.11 and it supports both Java and Bedrock. The server keeps it simple and avoids bloat commands like teleporting or home or ender chest commands.
People say the community is small and friendly and kind and it feels like a HermitCraft style server. It has been getting more popular lately with around 20 to 30 players online on weekends and sometimes weekdays.
This new season is slightly modded with the Origins mod and nothing is required on your client so Bedrock can still join. There is also Simple voice chat to make talking in game feel more real.
To play you have to fill out a whitelist application and they are looking for active and mature members who want to meet people and stick around.
Garconia is a government roleplay server where players can run for Congress and make the laws everyone has to live with. People debate bills and form groups to get votes. Laws can change stuff like tax rates and building rules so the whole server can feel different based on what gets passed.
The economy is fully run by players so prices and wages change from supply and demand. Congress controls fiscal policy and sets tax brackets and can step in if they want. You can start a business try to control a resource market or just build up money and influence under whatever laws the players make.
If you want power you can run for office. If you want cash you can build an empire and play the markets. The server is launching in less than a month.
Legendary Hardcore is a hardcore SMP where death means you are banned. There are no revives and the map does not reset so everything that happens stays as part of the world.
It is vanilla Minecraft with plugins that make hardcore more intense and more interesting. I saw stuff like player heads. You can also access dead players enderchests. There is Simple Voicechat and deep stat tracking too.
The server feels like it runs on real player stories. People build bases and form alliances then it all can end fast when someone dies. The drama is not scripted and players lead everything so it can turn into real conflict and betrayal.
There is a player maintained wiki that tracks the servers history and even lists every player who joined lived and died. There is also an interactive map for the spawn region that tracks changes over time.
It supports Java Edition and Bedrock Edition on version 1.21.11.
