I found a Java server that is going for a Hermitcraft kind of vibe. The main idea is to build a lot and hang out with other players.
It is 18+ and it is mostly vanilla. They add some quality of life mods to make things smoother and they also have a couple mods that help builders.
The rules are chill. No pvp unless both people agree and no raiding bases or breaking other peoples builds. They want players to interact host events and make a shopping district then just have fun.
18+ Hermitcraft Style Vanilla Java SMP

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPThe Garden SMP Survival Towny Roleplay

The Garden SMP is a Java 1.21.11 survival server with towny roleplay and a big focus on worldbuilding. People make towns and nations in the overworld then go on adventures in other dimensions and build stories together.
You start with three lives and you lose a life if another player kills you. You can protect builds with Towny. There are chest shops so you can sell stuff without a forced economy. You can lock chests with trail keys but lock picks exist so you still have to be careful.
There is Animal Hunger for raising livestock for harvest and Devotions where you can be a priest cultist or devote worshipper and get rewards for piety. Multiverse lets players explore their gods realm. The server is meant to be relaxed with optional challenges and it says there is no pay to win. Staff and mods are active and the community is a small thriving group.

I found a survival server called Ice Survival and it feels like a simple project server that is meant to be chill.
It is survival and it has some helpful commands like home claim and back so you can get around and protect your builds.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFresh Factions SMP With Peace And Wars

TerraCraft is a brand new Factions server where the world is fresh so everyone starts equal. It feels like it is made for players who want survival progress but also want real wars when it makes sense.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPVanilla Flavoured EU Semi Casual SMP

Vanilla Flavoured is a semi casual SMP that plays mostly like normal Minecraft. You do not need any client mods to join. The server only uses some server side mods for small quality of life stuff.
The server is hosted in the EU. The owner made it this way because they and a bunch of other players had trouble finding good servers in this region. So it is nice if you are in Europe or just want better ping there.
This world is pretty new. It was up for about a month of testing before it went public. So you are not super far behind and there is still room to grow and build.
PvP is allowed here so you can fight other players if you want. But griefing and looting bases is not allowed at all. There are systems on the server to help stop that so your stuff should be safe.
You can apply to join with a google form and learn more in their Discord server. The owner seems excited to get more people and see them playing.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPExiled Dimensions ATM10 Co‑op PVE

This is a modded survival server running All The Mods 10. It is set up as a PVE world so players focus on progression building and tinkering instead of fighting each other.
The server is whitelisted and meant for a small steady group of players. There are people from North America and some from Europe so there is usually someone online doing stuff.
Claims and forceloads are enabled so bases stay safe. You can earn more claim space as you play and if you are working on a big build you can ask staff for extra claims.
The world is survival with PvP turned off. It is hosted on a dedicated machine with a lot of RAM so it is made to handle a modpack like ATM10 for the long term.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFive Fate SMP Hardcore 5 Lives

This is a long term SMP that is built for older players who want to build and also fight. The server is hardcore and you only get 5 lives so it actually feels scary when you go out.
When you lose a life you do not just die right away. You get downed first so your friends can still help you. That makes fights more intense and more team based.
The server uses proximity chat so you hear people only when they are near you. It makes sneaking around or hanging out at spawn way more fun.
There are rules about bases and griefing so your stuff is not just randomly destroyed. The world is meant to last for a long time and it already started recently.
The server is on NA East so it is best for people close to that region and it is for players that are 17 and older.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPChill All The Mods 9 Survival

This is a small All The Mods 9 server that is meant to stay up for around three months or maybe longer. It is for people who like big modpacks with tech and magic and lots of stuff to do.
Some of the mods in the pack are Create Ad Astra Applied Energistics 2 Mekanism Mahou Tsukai and Blood Magic. So you can build machines do magic go to space and make crazy bases.
The server has land claims so other players should not be able to wreck your base. That helps stop most griefing so you can just build and chill without stressing about it.
There is also a tutorial that shows how to set up the mods so even if you never played modded before you can learn how to join. The server is not cracked and the owner will not help people who pirate the game.
It feels like a place for players who want to try a big modpack together and stay for a whole season instead of just a few days.

Ballistic SMP is a Minecraft PvP server that feels like a big arena with lore and quests. It is only for Java players.
The whole server is built around combat. You can duel other players or fight in teams and the important part is your skill and timing. It is not about abusing overpowered gear or cheap tricks.

The server has a strong rule against griefing and stealing. Your base and progress are protected so people can fight without ruining each others builds.
There is a lot of lore and worldbuilding. You can discover the story of the four guardians through quests hidden relics and events that change the future of the server.
There are frequent events like air drops that cause quick fights lore events that push the story forward and weapon or armor events where you can compete for mythic fragments and unlock powers.
