community feedbackexploration focusedplayer-run marketquality of lifeteam friendly
I found EchelonMC and it is a hand built survival server on 1.21.1. It has been in active development for about 2 months and the owner Eddy keeps building it based on player suggestions. They say over 100 suggestions already got added and updates happen every week.
The vibe is long term building and real progression with a strong community. It is not pay to win and they say there are no resets planned. It also tries to avoid that recycled plugin pack feeling since the systems are made for this server.
There is an Echelites currency you earn by just playing like mining farming fishing exploring and building. There is advanced land claiming with visual borders and lots of protection options like TNT and creeper control fire spread protection raid prevention and more. There are teams with member management and private team chat.
It also has auto pathing where paths form under you and can give speed bonuses and you can toggle it. Public builds can be listed so people can visit vote and climb rankings. There are timed graves so your items are protected with balanced recovery mechanics. The server is hosted in Canada.

The Pen Classic 2014 Prison Grind
Classic progressionCookie bakeryguard roleplayillegal cropsmanual smelting
The Pen MC is a classic prison server that feels like the 2014 era. It is barebones and grindy on purpose. There is no instant selling and you are not running around with crazy overpowered armor.
Money takes work here. You mine and you smelt your ores yourself. To sell you have to travel and deal with pvp zones so it can get sketchy.
Rank up from A through H and then reach Parole. After you finish the main ranks you can prestige and you can pick how you want to progress. You can keep doing the classic mining grind or use the custom fishing system. There is also a mob arena with waves and boss fights. There is a cookie farming bakery system too where you farm wheat and cocoa then bake cookies with custom mechanics and do long term quests and compete on leaderboards.
There are guards enforcing contraband rules and illegal crops that are high risk and high reward. You can rent cells and plots. There is an auction house bounties player shops solitary confinement and parkour challenges. The server also says anything you can buy can be earned by playing so it is focused on long term progression not instant wins.
