I found a small semi vanilla SMP that is in testing right now
The plan is to fully start in about a week so it feels like a good time to get in early and be part of the first group

Vanilla Realms is a friendly vanilla server with active players and a community that feels really solid.
It uses emeralds as money so trading and buying stuff makes sense. There are claiming tools so your builds stay protected.
It works for both Java and Bedrock players so more friends can join in. Someone has been playing here for a few years and still says it is worth it.

Rosebloom SMP is a friendly seasonal survival server with Java and Bedrock crossplay. It is built to feel chill and welcoming and it is run by an owner named Heinrich with a staff team that keeps things safe and respectful.
Season 3 starts March 6th and the big twist is everyone begins in the Nether. Players work together to unlock and reach the Overworld and then start exploring the main world. The server also runs community events and you can win in game prizes including valuables.
It supports version 1.21.10 and it has custom biomes plus custom food and crops. There are quality of life plugins a rewards system and seasons that do not drag on forever. Minecraft chat also links with Discord through a bot so people can stay connected even when they are not in game.
The vibe is community first so it is meant for builders explorers miners farmers redstone players and anyone who just wants to hang out. There are still some limits and rules so it does not turn into a mess.

I found UnstoppableSMP and it is based on UnstableSMP. It is a survival server that is open for everyone.
You can join on Java or Bedrock and it also allows cracked players. The version listed is 1.21.11.
The big rule is you should not die because you only get one life every 12 hours. It makes everything feel more serious and kind of stressful in a fun way.

Odyssey Chronicles is a Minecraft network with three different servers so you can play how you want.
One server is modded with Origins and it does seasonal resets. Each season they also change up the mods so it feels different again.
Another server is for events and minigames. They host events and you can play stuff like OneBlock.
The newest server is a vanilla server with crossplay and it never resets. So if you want a long term world you can stick there.

This server is a minimal ComputerCraft style experience with a few addon and quality of life mods. It includes Plethora plus SC Peripherals and Goodies and Classic Peripherals so you can do a lot with computers and peripherals.
It has an active community with about 3 to 7 players online daily and around 10 at peak hours.
There are custom features like a WebSocket based Chatbox API and a Kromer economy server and a custom Pastebin replacement with no ads. It also has a playtime based welfare system.
Players have made community stuff too like a warp for free items and a mall warp for shops that sell lots of different items. There is a modpack you can install to play.

G.URL SMP is a cute cozy survival server with a creative fashion vibe and a really community first feel. The world is handcrafted and it leans hard into a pink style with lots of custom content to find and show off.
There are multiple worlds like spawn and a resources world and a tutorial area. You can build a town with Towny and work with nations or you can stay solo with Grief Protection so your own space feels safe.
The server has an economy where you can earn coins through jobs and quests and just playing. You can spend money in player shops and unlock cute rewards. There are custom mobs and custom items plus cosmetics like hats backpacks and emotes. You can also collect pets furniture boards plushies and other themed collectibles while you build and vibe.


I found a vanilla survival multiplayer server that lets cracked players join. It usually has around 20 to 30 players so it feels busy.
The community is active and people are on a lot. It sounds like the main point is just normal survival with friends and having fun together.
