I found a modded SMP that two sisters are building together and it feels like it is made for people who want a real community.
It uses a custom modpack called Runic Engine and it has four progression paths that connect to each other. There is mystic stuff with magic and rituals plus mechanic stuff with machines and automation. There is also adventure for exploring and combat and homestead for farming and economy.
The whole point is that nobody has to rush endgame. They want teamwork and shared projects and people helping each other. They also say it is long term and there are no wipes planned. Development is active and changes are based on feedback.

XYZ ANARCHY TRUE NO RULES CHAOS
I found XYZ Anarchy and it is a straight up anarchy server. It has no rules at all and it feels like nobody is going to step in and save you.
People can grief raid and betray whenever they want. There is no protection and nothing is safe so if you build something you better be ready to defend it.
It also says there are no resets so whatever happens stays. Join if you want real chaos and you are fine losing everything.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP1.21 Adult Chill SMP Second Wave
Closebound is a 1.21 SMP that is made for adults who want a calm place after a long day. The world keeps going even if you cannot play every night.
The server has been up for about a month and the dragon is already defeated so the rush is over. Shops are open and it feels more like the best part of a long world where you can just build and relax.
It is whitelisted and runs on Fabric with Proximity Voice included. The rules are meant to keep things simple with no griefing and no heavy land claim stuff. They are looking for a few new players to join this second wave and help shape what happens next.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPEmberfield SMP Whitelist Vanilla+ Launch

I found an anarchy server where people can do basically anything but there is one rule and it is no pvp hacking. The owner says they cannot really stop it they just hope people follow it.
The server has a bunch of wild stuff like a nuke and a stab thing plus flame stuff a wolf army and blindness. There is also a railgun that kind of works.
Teams are being added and the owner has a team you can join. If you join you can get a copy of their gear like maces gapples and full netherite with enchants plus a villager trading room. They said there are only a few kits so you gotta be fast.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPDisc Realms Semi-Anarchy Season Launch
