CozyCraft is a calm survival server that feels old school and simple. It is made for people who want to build for a long time and not deal with drama.
The world is meant to last forever so there are no map resets or seasonal wipes. PvP is off so it is all about working together and just surviving.
It stays close to vanilla with only a few plugins. There is no pay to win stuff and the gameplay is slow and natural which makes it great for big long term builds.
BudderCraft Tower Defense Challenge

I found a Minecraft server called BudderCraft Network and it has a Tower Defense mode that feels like those classic defense games where you stop mobs from reaching the exit.
The Tower Defense mode is the main thing they push and it already has a lot going on. There are 15 different towers and 5 classes so you can try lots of play styles while you fight through 25 waves.
Each map has 5 difficulty choices. Beginner is super chill and expert is meant to be brutal since even the owner has not beaten most maps on that setting.
The upgrade system is grid based and you only get 9 upgrades so you have to pick carefully. Towers have a bunch of upgrades to choose from and you unlock paths as you go. You also get 7 targeting options so you can control what your towers focus on.
Rounds are preset so you can learn them and it is not just random luck. There are 9 3D maps and the terrain can block tower attacks so placement matters. After you win you can keep going in an optional freeplay mode that ramps up.

Everything is meant to be fair since the world is brand new and nobody is months ahead. There is no pay to win and there is no special protection to save you.
You cannot be offline griefed so if you are not online your base cannot get destroyed. But if you are online and someone raids you then it is real and it means they planned better or fought better.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPUneasyVanilla Semi Anarchy Survival Chaos

UneasyVanilla is a vanilla survival server with a semi anarchy vibe. It feels like a place where you can do your own thing and still run into other players in random ways.
The world is over 4 years old so it has a lot of history. Spawn is totally messed up and griefed and your first spawn drops you into a maze of lavacasts. If you can escape then you can start exploring and building a real base.
It is not full anarchy though since there are still some rules. Staff watch for cheaters and they ban them fast. They also care about keeping the server running smooth so the world does not get ruined by lag.
If you want survival with danger and big builds and maybe alliances too then this server is worth a try. It is chill most of the time but it can turn wild fast.

I found a fresh SMP that is tired of the usual problem where everyone is already stacked and the world feels finished. This one is meant to feel like you are joining at the start so you are not stuck behind giant bases and untouchable players.
It runs on 1.21.11 Fabric and it is semi anarchy with light mods. The mods are just small quality of life stuff so it stays smooth and everything else is just part of the game.
The world is still new and there is a lot to explore. You can look for loot to restore and poke around for secrets.
