Waystone is a small semi vanilla Java SMP that feels like the kind of place where people actually talk and keep building for the long run. It is aimed at a Hermitcraft style vibe with a relaxed pace and a community that wants to stick around.
The world is meant for long term builds and towns. You can build solo or with friends and there is land claiming to help keep your stuff safe.
Deaths are less stressful since your items get saved in a gravestone for a few hours. There are also skills that level up while you play and you unlock small perks over time.
When people go adventuring together everyone gets their own loot so nobody has to argue about it. Proximity voice chat is optional and there is also a live map you can watch as builds grow.
The server is whitelist only on Java 1.21.11 and it is UK hosted. They also say no pay to win and no constant resets and they run events fairly often.
