I found Olympus SMP and it is a survival server that keeps the classic vanilla feel while still having some unique mods like Stellarity that makes exploring more interesting.
The server has a growing active player base and the vibe seems friendly. Staff is around and they aim for fair gameplay so it does not feel scummy.
People build big bases run a player driven economy and go on adventures together. They also do community events and challenges so there is usually something going on.
It supports both cracked and premium players so more people can join in.

Bluest Network is a modded fantasy Minecraft server that just went public. It feels like more than a normal SMP because people are here to chill and meet new players while still having big adventures.
The world is built around fantasy stuff like dragons and magic. Players can make their own nations and then team up or fight. There are wars and conquests and alliances so the politics can get wild.
It seems good for roleplay or for anyone who wants to build up a strong nation. You can also just relax and play with others if you do not want to get dragged into every fight.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
