I found Anarchy Network and it is a semi anarchy survival server that tries to feel like real vanilla Minecraft with very few changes.
It started on October 11th 2024 and it is hosted in New York City. The server stays online all day and it lets you join on Java versions from 1.7.2 up to 1.21.11. They recommend 1.21.10 so you do not get weird issues.
The world is huge with a 2 million block border and there are no map resets. There is no pay to win and griefing plus pvp is allowed so you need to be careful.
There is no teleporting and the only command they allow is spawn so people far away can still get back to civilization. Nether roof access is allowed. Phantoms are removed and only half the players need to sleep to skip the night.
They do not allow exploits lag machines duping spamming or harassment and racial slurs in chat.
Hermit Style SMP With Proximity Chat
This is a community centered survival server that feels like a Hermitcraft style SMP. It is made by the players and a lot of choices come from community requests and polls.
It keeps the vanilla experience as the main goal. There is a diamond based economy with a shopping district. You will also see public builds and bigger projects going on.
Most players use proximity chat so it is easy to talk while you play. There are homes plus some cosmetic and quality of life and fun plugins.
It is Minecraft 1.21.11 on Java only. The server is whitelisted and it is 18 plus only. You can expect about 5 to 20 people online through the day and a lot of regular active players and groups looking for more members.
