I found Cozy MC and it feels like a long term survival world where people actually know each other. It is built around trust and staying consistent instead of doing a bunch of gimmicks.
Most days are pretty calm and simple. Builds grow slowly and sometimes people work together so the world feels alive but not chaotic.
Gameplay is vanilla survival on Hard. There are no land claims and no locked chests and there are no resets. There is also no monetization. PvP only happens if both people agree.
Java and Bedrock players can play together in the same world. You can join and explore right away but to break blocks and fully interact you have to read the rules in game first.

This server is a long term survival world that has been running for around three years. The map has real history because it started as a no rules anarchy world. You can see scars in the terrain and find old abandoned bases and hidden places made by players over time. Nothing has been wiped so everything you find feels like it really belongs there.
Now it is more survival focused but still keeps that anarchy past. There is progression and some quality of life stuff if you want it. You are not forced into any play style. You can build a base grind for gear trade with people explore ruins from old players or just run far away and survive by yourself.
The world feels like a real place and not like some minigame hub. There are optional ranks that only give quality of life and are not pay to win. If you are tired of fresh start servers and constant resets this server is made for long term players who want their progress to actually matter.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
