This is a semi vanilla Factions SMP where you can play survival but also get into team fights and territory drama.
It uses datapacks that add more mob heads and veinminer and mini blocks. It also has tpa so getting around can be easier. There is also a datapack that lets you get custom armor.
The server has mods that make sleep more fair for everyone so the night can get skipped without forcing the whole server to stop what they are doing.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCozy Survival With A Kind Community

Cozy MC is a hard difficulty survival world that stays really close to vanilla. It feels like singleplayer survival but with a bunch of people around and the main focus is being inclusive and kind.
There is no fancy spawn and no lobby stuff. The world runs on trust and you usually see around 40 players online.
Stealing and griefing get you banned. They also have tools to fix damage and players can check container transactions so theft can be found and reported.
PvP is only allowed if both players agree. You can still find friendly duels happening sometimes.
When you first join you cannot break blocks or pick up items until you type /rules and /discord and follow the steps in the Rules section so everyone actually reads the rules before playing.

TheVille SMP is a public survival server that started as a private world with friends. It sticks to a vanilla feel but it is made to be way more hardcore and rewarding.
It is focused on PvE and also has natural PvP moments. You will run into tougher mobs and the server has elite enemies plus bosses that can really test you.
The world has custom biomes and custom structures like dungeons and hidden treasures. The cool part is the difficulty scales as you travel farther so exploring feels risky and exciting.
The community is small and friendly and staff are active and actually listen to ideas. There are no mods and no economy grind so it stays about survival.

This server feels like real survival with almost no extra stuff added. It is made for people who are tired of servers that call themselves vanilla but still have tons of plugins and shortcuts.
There are no teleports so you travel the normal way. There are no land claims either so the staff uses CoreProtect to catch griefing and they punish it hard. You also do not get kits perks or scripted towns so everything comes from players.
People can make clans and build villages and cities on their own. Proximity voice chat is optional through Simple Voice Chat. The server is based in the EU and you need to get whitelisted to play.

I found sVanilla SMP and it feels like a simple survival server with a semi anarchy vibe. It is mostly vanilla and it keeps things straightforward.
The main rule is no hacking. That makes fights and progress feel more fair even when people play rough.
The player base is pretty small and it still stays fairly active so it feels like you can actually recognize people and find your place.
