This server is called LavaNetwork and it is a new survival SMP that is still in beta. It feels mostly vanilla so it is really simple to understand and easy to get into.
There is land claiming so you can protect your base and builds. The people on the server seem friendly and the whole place has a pretty chill community vibe.
The world is still pretty fresh and not much is built yet. That actually makes it cool because you can join early and help shape how everything looks.
If you like simple survival and building and starting out on a new server from the ground up then this one is worth checking out. It runs on Minecraft 1.20 or higher on Java.

This is a small survival server called HoneySMP and it feels super cozy. It is not a giant pay to win server. It is more like a long term world where the same people keep coming back.
The players want a real community. At spawn there is a community chest area where you can take what you need and leave what you do not. It helps new people get started so you are not stuck punching trees forever.
They run weekly events that sound fun like Elytra races and a custom event called Honey Heist. During events people hop in voice chat and just hang out and play together. It feels more like a group of friends than random strangers.
The server has some custom coded features. There is key forging where you can combine keys and try to upgrade them into better tiers instead of just opening boring crates. There is a player driven economy where you can sell stuff from your farms and run your own shop.
You can earn everything just by playing. Even ranks and keys are grindable so it stays fair and not pay to win.
The server supports both Java and Bedrock so you can play from PC console or mobile with your friends. If you want a place to build a huge base run a shop or just chill and talk this server is made for that.

This is a brand new survival smp that just started and it is already open to play right now. The owner wants around 10 to 15 players total so it feels like a small and chill world instead of a giant random server.
The server is fully survival and it is made for people who like real gameplay. There is pvp for people who want to fight and there is space for builders and anyone else who just wants to hang out and play.
Anyone can join for now but when they reach the player goal a whitelist will turn on. That makes it feel more like a real community where people kind of know each other instead of a huge public server.
The owner is around and shares their minecraft name and discord so it feels like they actually care about the server and the players who join. If you want a fresh world with a small group this server looks pretty good.

MCVerse is a survival server made for really long term worlds. The main world is planned to last for many years so people can build huge projects without worrying about resets. There is no grief and players can come back after long breaks and still find their stuff safe.
The gameplay is almost vanilla but there are some helpful features. You can claim land to protect it. There are teleports and quality of life things. Builders get tools like armor stand tweaks mini blocks and decorative heads. There are player markets so you can trade to skip some of the grind or you can just play fully self made.
Chat is kept clean and public chat is mostly for Minecraft and gaming. Swearing is not really allowed. The community has people from different countries and a wide age range. Events are usually started by players and supported by the admins.
There are a few different experiences. There is a permanent long term survival world with a map claims markets clans and fishing contests. There is also a hardcore vanilla mode with no grief and bigger biomes. There is a vanilla no grief world that runs for around 6 to 12 months with very few plugins and small claims. For testing builds there are creative plots where you can experiment.
Ranks are earned just by playing and all perks are free. The server focuses on simple survival with some protection and collaboration tools so it still feels like vanilla but works well for long term SMP.

I found this Bedrock realm called KitsuneCraft and it is super calm and chill. The whole world feels soft and colorful and it is made for people who like to explore and collect stuff and relax.
The main thing here is dragons. They roam around the world and you can focus on finding them and taming them if you want. There are also plushies and custom mob heads and other cool little things that make the world feel more alive.
The server is survival but it does not feel harsh at all. Keep inventory is on so it is way less stressful to go on adventures or try new ideas. You can just build cozy bases and walk around and take your time.
The community seems warm and friendly and the staff are kind and answer people. It feels like a place where everyone can just hang out and play at their own pace without drama.

This server is called Sparked and it is a long term SMP that feels really close and social. It is made for people who like building and chill Minecraft with other players. The admins are active and they stay involved with the community and keep the server running smooth.
When you join it feels very simple and very vanilla on purpose. There are no big menus and no giant tutorial walls. There are no warps and no land claims and only a little bit of quality of life stuff. It honestly feels like you just joined a friends world that they started for fun.
Even though it feels super simple there are mods that protect your builds just in case something bad happens. The owner is open about server costs and server specs and bans so it feels really honest and transparent. The players are mainly adults so the whole place feels more mature.
They use some Vanilla Tweaks style datapacks like more mob heads and armor poser and player heads. There is proximity voice chat and bluemap and other mods that run in the background but nothing that removes normal vanilla features. It is basically a relaxed hermitcraft like community but still its own thing.

CrabCraft Season 6 is a pure vanilla style SMP where people just play survival Minecraft together. There are some small quality of life features but it still feels like normal Minecraft.
The server is inspired by HermitCraft so it stays simple and survival focused. Players work on their own bases and also on shared projects. It feels like everyone is there to build cool stuff and have fun.
The server has built in voice chat using Simple Voice Chat. You do not have to switch apps all the time. Talking and planning with other players feels really natural.
There is an active Discord where players hang out and talk about events and builds. It is not just for announcements. People share what they are working on and help each other.
The server is whitelisted so random people cannot just join. This keeps the community safe and friendly and helps prevent griefing.
The server also does regular backups and has rollback protection per chunk. So if something goes wrong there is a way to fix it.
Last season more than 200 players joined and together they played a lot of hours. The community seems really proud of what they made and they want Season 6 to be even better.
