I found a chill vanilla survival server that is whitelisted and made for a small community. It feels relaxed and casual and it is meant to be a place to build explore and hang out.
They keep rules pretty light and they do not want people griefing builds. PvP is allowed though so you can fight if you want to.
It runs on 1.21.3 and it has a few tiny quality of life plugins. The world border is set to 10k for now and the server is hosted in Germany. All ages can join and they may add new features later if the community wants it.
Pea SMP Classic Survival No Teleports
PeaMC is a semi vanilla SMP that tries to feel like classic Minecraft survival. There are no teleports and there are no land claims so you travel the world the normal way and build where you want.
It is whitelisted so people have to apply which helps keep trolls out. The owner and mods are active in game and in Discord and the community is meant to be chill.
The server supports crossplay for Java and Bedrock from 1.7x to 1.21.11. You can form teams and invite friends. PvP is allowed but griefing and stealing from bases is not allowed and spawn killing is not allowed.
There is newbie protection where PvP is off for your first hour unless you disable it. Some destructive PvP stuff is banned like TNT beds respawn anchors end crystals and minecart PvP and maces are banned too. There are a few minor plugins but they are meant to keep the vanilla feel.

I found a server group called Toxic Network and it is running two modpacks right now. One is Prominence II and the other is FTB StoneBlock 4.
The servers are very new and they want to open more servers later. They host from the EU but they say US players should still feel almost no lag difference.
Prominence II is on version 3.9.17 and StoneBlock 4 is on version 1.8.0.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPLegionCraft OneBlock Boss Loot Grind
LegionCraft is a OneBlock server where you start on your island and grind to grow it bigger.
The big thing here is the challenging bosses. When you beat them they drop keys and you can use those for rare loot.
There are crates with epic gear and rewards so you always have something to chase.
It also has chunk hoppers so you can automate your island and focus more on building fighting and looting. The server says it is no pay to win.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPModded Squad PvP Weekly War Events
Frontline Combat is a modded team based pvp server that feels like squad fights mixed with battlefield style battles.
It runs regular events every week and the staff keeps trying to make each one better. They also use their own custom mods and content to help the combat feel more unique.
The server is Java only and they are trying to grow the player base so more people can join in on the events.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPSURVIVAL SERVER TURNED CROP EMPIRE
Twigland looks like a normal survival server at first. You join to chill and farm and build a base. People grind and try to get stronger and stack up gear.
Then the money part kicks in. There is a crop plugin and it turns farming into easy profit. It starts small but it can turn into a whole operation in the wilderness.
Players move shipments late and even hire PvP players to guard them. The economy starts getting messy and towns begin to pick sides. It still feels like survival but it gets way more serious fast.
If you like McMMO grinding and making a name for yourself through farming and schemes this place has that vibe.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPYAK SMP PURE VANILLA NO CLAIMS
I found a server that feels like old Minecraft where you just survive and deal with whatever happens.
There are no protection plugins and no claiming land. There are no rules about griefing so players can build or break stuff and it is all part of the world.
The world is persistent and the map does not reset. It stays online 24 7. It runs on version 1.21 for Java and Bedrock.
The main rules are simple. No cheats no hacks and no lag machines. There is an Italian Discord and an English Discord for the community.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPONE LIFE Anarchy SMP Hardcore
I found a hardcore anarchy smp where you only get one life.

I found LegacyMC and it is a vanilla anarchy survival server that goes for the old school feel. It is meant to be raw and open with no gameplay changing plugins.
There are no rules here so PvP is on and griefing and raiding are allowed. There are no land claims and no teleporting so you have to travel the hard way and protect your own stuff.
The world does not reset and the server started in June 2025 so it still feels like a place where you can leave a mark. It is hosted on dedicated hardware in Australia so it is aimed at low latency for Australia and New Zealand players.
It is open to everyone with no whitelist. It also has no monetisation and no pay to win and they say donations are not required and will not be requested.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
