Unnamed SMP Season 3 Hermitcraft Vibes
advancement huntersBuilding-focusedlong-term worldno grief survivalVoice Chat Server
This is a Hermitcraft inspired SMP that just started season 3 and it feels really fresh and fun.
The server uses Simple Voice Chat so people can talk in game without having to leave Minecraft. There is Audio Player so you can use custom music discs and goat horns. They also use Carpet to add stuff like renewable deepslate and player bots so you can AFK farms.
There are cool cosmetic things like Tool Trims and custom model support plus a server side skin system so you can change your skin with a command. Image2Map lets players turn pictures into maps which is really good for art and signs.
The server has a bunch of datapacks. There are more mob heads and player head drops. Elytra trims and armor statues let people decorate more. Silence Mobs lets you quiet mobs with a nametag. There are smaller blocks in the stonecutter and wood can be used in the stonecutter too.
Recipe tweaks let you change things like dropper to dispenser universal dyeing sandstone dyeing and downcraftable nether wart and ice. Blaze and Caves advancement pack adds over 1000 new advancements so there is always something to work on.
From what I can see this server is for players who like long term survival and building up a world together with a lot of small quality of life changes instead of crazy mods.

Chilltown SMP Seasons And Adventure
claims survivalexploration focusedfriendly playersloot huntersno paywall
Chilltown is a survival SMP that feels really relaxed but still has some challenge. The people on here seem friendly and it is meant to be an inclusive community where you can just hang out and play.
The server is all about adventuring and building. There are custom structures and custom biomes so the world looks different and has more cool places to explore and loot. They also do seasons. Every 90 days the terrain changes so the world feels more alive instead of the same old map forever.
It is not super easy though. The server tries to be unique and challenging without being too punishing. There are custom mobs and custom enchants so combat and gear are more interesting than normal vanilla.
You can claim land using a chunk based claiming system so you do not need a golden shovel. There is a community chest and a community discord server so it feels like people are meant to help each other and play together instead of griefing.
There is a daily rewards system to keep you logging in and the owner says there is a heavy focus on not being pay to win. So you can just play and earn stuff instead of needing to buy power.
If you want a chill place to play survival with seasons adventure and building this server seems like a good pick.

SummitSurvival Hard Vanilla Plus SMP
challenging survivalfree to playminimal pluginsSurvival SmpVanilla Plus
SummitSurvival is a hard mode vanilla plus server that feels like a real survival world with friends. It is free to play and the few extras are just there to make life easier not to make it pay to win.
The server runs on 1.21.x and sticks close to normal Minecraft. You get simple commands like spawn and sethome and faster nights but not a bunch of crazy plugins. Mob rates are vanilla and there are no weird limits on what you can build so it feels like a normal world just with more people.
There are no land claim plugins so everyone is expected to respect each other. The rules say you cannot hack or use x ray and you cannot mess with other player builds or their mobs. You should ask before you build too close to someone. Dupes that give tons of different items are not allowed but small ones like rail or string dupes are ok.
The economy is item based and uses raw gold for trading and for the player run shopping district. There is also a donor rank but it only gives some extra bonuses that are mostly cosmetic so regular players can still keep up fine.
The staff team is small and they stay out of the way unless someone is cheating or griefing. The community talks a lot and people like to hang out and chat while they play so it feels pretty active.
