I found WinterMC and it is a modded survival SMP with a brand new world. It has 120 plus mods so there is a lot to mess with right away.
People can claim land so your builds stay protected and you can relax more. The world generation is custom and it is made to look huge with continents and islands and big landscapes.
Exploring seems like a big deal here since there are more structures like dungeons and better strongholds and mineshafts and cave biomes. If you like automation you can build Create factories and rail stuff too.
Survival has extra food and farming content and a bunch of quality of life mods like backpacks waystones JEI corpse and voice chat. It also has more decoration and building options so bases can look really nice.
The vibe is chill and the goal is to play without unnecessary chaos while you build explore grind or just hang out.
