OrianaMC is a survival server that feels like a big upgrade from normal Minecraft. You do not just mine and log off. You get to build towns and even create your own kingdom and grow your power over time.
The server uses jobs and skills instead of admin shops. You pick a skill and then earn money by doing tasks like mining or farming. It feels like your work actually matters and your skill choice changes how you play.
There are custom items that come from fragments and cores that drop randomly from monsters. You can trade those for Rubedites. Rubedites are used to get special items with custom textures and enchantments that go past normal vanilla limits so the gear can get really strong.
You can rank up through more than ten in game ranks just by playing. Each rank is harder and more expensive to unlock so it rewards people who stick around and keep grinding. Higher ranks give better perks so there is always something to work for.
The server also has gemstones auctions and events so there is more to do than just basic survival. The community feels chill and friendly and the whole goal is to make a relaxed place where players can hang out and grow their towns and kingdoms.

VANILLA ANARCHY ON PURE OLD VERSIONS

I found a vanilla anarchy server that runs on Minecraft 1.3.2. It is the kind of place where there are no rules and you can do whatever you want.
They do not patch exploits and they only use official jar files. The server can update every week and the next version is decided by a vote.
They are going through every official server version and that includes snapshots and even the april fools ones.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPGOOMB SMP Season 2 Amplified Vanilla

GOOMB SMP is a vanilla survival server that is playing in an amplified world. The world got reset about a month ago so lots of people are still building up and finding spots for new bases.
At first the border made everyone live close together but now the border has been expanded so there is way more room for different plans. The End has been opened and players even started an egg hunt event so people can meet up and mess with the egg.
The community is really active with shop ads and trades and people sharing cool terrain screenshots. Voice chats are often full too.
Rules are simple and strict. Be respectful and mature. No hate speech. No NSFW. No griefing stealing or unconsented PvP. You have to apply in Discord to get approved and whitelisted.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP3b3t Full-Metal No-Rules Anarchy

This is the Full Metal side of the 3B3T twin servers and it is the dangerous one. It runs on Fabric and it is on a powerful dedicated machine so people can really push the limits.
It is an anarchy place where everything is allowed and the goal is to dominate at all costs. Players use every cheat and mod they can find and they build crazy stuff while fighting dirty.
It is Java 1.21.7 or newer and it is premium Minecraft only. There are no resets. You get graves and you can set homes but there is no /tpa.
If Full Metal feels too rough there is also a No Hax twin server but this one is for full chaos.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPClassic No Frills Survival SMP

This server is a classic survival SMP that tries to keep Minecraft feeling simple and real. It is made for players who just want to survive build explore and play with a friendly community.
There are no big gimmicks or overcomplicated stuff. It is more about working together and doing your own projects at your own pace.
If you want extra immersion there is optional proximity chat so you can hear nearby players in game.
There is also a community pixel project you can join with the /place command. It is like a big shared canvas where you place one block every 10 seconds and only wool counts so it gets pretty intense and funny.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPTrue Vanilla Hardcore Deathbans Crossplay

I found a true vanilla survival server that keeps it simple with minimal plugins and no ranks and no pay to win stuff.
It has a big world border so you can travel far and build out. The main twist is you get tempbanned when you die so staying alive actually matters.
When you first join you spawn with some starter items plus invis and regen so you can sneak away from spawn and get set up.
It works on both Java 1.21.11 and Bedrock 1.21.131 so friends can play together.
