Ordinary SMP is a vanilla survival server on Java that feels like a small friendly neighborhood. It is a whitelisted place so the players are picked a bit more carefully and it helps keep everything respectful and calm.
The server is always updated to the newest version so right now it is running 1.21.11 with all the latest features. People on here like to build and explore and they work together on big community projects. It feels like a group of friends even if everyone is from different countries.
There is grief protection because they use a tool called Ledger to check what happened if something gets broken or stolen. That makes it safer to build and actually care about your base without worrying all the time.
The server also has BlueMap so you can see the world on an interactive map while you play. It has Simple VoiceChat to talk in game and AudioPlayer for custom audio. There is a custom resource pack with special cosmetics trophies and event rewards that fit a HermitCraft inspired theme.
They run server wide events like pvp battles build contests and big community projects so there is almost always something to do. If you like building exploring redstone or just chilling and vibing with other players this server fits that style really well.

CaveMC Season 2 Underground Semi-Anarchy

I found this server called CaveMC and it is kind of insane. The whole overworld is just one giant underground cave world. There is no normal surface at all. Everywhere you go is caves biomes resources and hidden places.
It plays like enhanced vanilla with semi anarchy rules so it feels really dangerous. Survival is super brutal and only the players that are smart and careful last very long. People explore fight and try to control the best spots.
This is Season 2 so it is a fresh start and they added a lot of new stuff. The biggest thing is a new Wasteland dimension. It is not just a biome. It is a whole new place with its own special gear and huge mega structures that you can explore.
In the Wasteland there is a unique currency and its own economy so players can trade and build power in different ways. There is also a new spawn that matches the theme and a custom generated map that looks really cool and has special features.
If you like tough survival semi anarchy and living only underground this server feels perfect. It is all about exploring dark caves fighting for loot and trying to survive longer than everyone else.

This is a small Minecraft community that feels really cozy and kind of epic at the same time. It is all about creativity lore and friendships and not about random chaos.
The server is modded with All The Mods 9 so it is a heavy pack and there is a lot of stuff to do and explore. The playstyle is SMP with world building and lore so people work together and build stories and towns instead of just rushing and quitting.
There is a spawn shop and a player made economy. Players trade diamonds gold emeralds and other stuff so it feels like a real marketplace. PvP is turned on but griefing is not allowed so you can fight but you still respect each other. There are also bounties which makes PvP feel more like a game and not just toxic.
The End has an extra boss called the Chaos Dragon so there are big team fights where people group up and try to beat it together. The server also runs events and giveaways to keep things interesting.
They ask everyone to read the rules in the discord so people know how to behave. Builders explorers storytellers and leaders all fit here because the server wants people who help shape the world and the lore instead of ruining it.

Rattata SMP is a chill survival server that tries to stay really close to normal vanilla Minecraft. It is made for players who want a simple world where you just play and have fun with other people.
The server runs on hard difficulty and has a live map so you can see the world from a browser. There is also a sleep system where only about a third of the players need to sleep to skip the night. There is an optional simple voice mod too if you like talking while you play.
The rules are super basic and easy to remember. Do not grief and use common sense. That is pretty much it. There are no teleports no changed loot tables and no custom world generation. It is just basic vanilla survival with other players.
The community is meant to be mature and 16 plus and the server uses a whitelist so you have to apply before joining. It started with a group of friends who wanted a nice place to play together and now they are looking for more people who want to help build a friendly long term world.
