I found this server called OrianaMC and it is made for people who really like normal Minecraft survival. It runs on version 1.21.11 and it keeps the game close to vanilla but still has some plugins to make things more fun and last longer.
The main world is survival and you can claim your land so your builds stay safe. That makes it feel secure and you do not have to worry about random people breaking your stuff.
The economy is all about the players. You make money and you spend it with other players and trade with them. The only thing you buy that is not from players is in game ranks. There is also an auction house so you can sell rare items to everyone.
There are custom items like extra tools and armor so it feels a bit fresh but it still keeps the normal survival feeling. It does not feel super modded or confusing.
The server really cares about its community. They want no rude players no sudden resets and no annoying lag. It feels like they are trying to make a peaceful place where players can just play survival and hang out for a long time.

I found this server that feels like the old prison days. It is not an OP prison so you do not start out super strong. You begin with basic tools and leather armor and you actually have to grind to get better gear.
You rank up by mining and doing the classic prison grind. The ranks go from A all the way up to Citizen and you can prestige for special rewards when you hit the top rank. You have to smelt your ores and then walk through pvp zones to sell them in the commissary so it feels risky and intense.
There are guards that protect new players and also enforce contraband rules. Swords and potions are illegal so if a guard sees you with them they will fight you. You can even get sent to solitary confinement by a guard if you have bad conduct.
There are some cool extra ways to make money like custom fishing and growing special illegal plants in your cell. You can rent a prison cell or a plot to store items build stuff grow illegal crops or make your own shop. There are quests for extra cash or special items and a bounty system if you want to put a price on someone and hunt players.
