This server is called Ethis and it is a semi vanilla SMP that feels a lot like Hermitcraft. It runs on Fabric 1.21.10 and is hosted in Germany. The world is pretty simple and close to vanilla with no tpa commands no land claiming and no homes so you travel and live in a more natural way.
The community has been around for about five years. People there know each other well and try to be inclusive and friendly. Some players work on big builds and redstone projects. Others just mess around and play for fun. You do not need to be super good at the game you just need to be kind.
They use a voice chat mod so you can walk up to people talk for a bit and then run off again if you want. There are events and game nights both in game and in their Discord to keep people inspired and to help everyone hang out and build together.
To join you have to fill out a solid application. After that there is a small voice call so they can get to know you and you can get to know them. They do this to keep out toxic players and keep the good vibes. If you want a simple survival world where you can make friends and play long term this server is made for that.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPChill DragonFyre Duos PvP Server
This is a small Cisco DragonFyre server that feels like a chill group of friends hanging out and learning the modpack together. The owners are starting fresh and want around 6 to 8 relaxed players. You can join solo or bring a friend and everyone gets put into duos.
Each duo makes their own base and does their own thing. There is no griefing allowed and players are expected to use FTB team chunk claims to keep stuff safe. The whole idea is to progress through the mod, do quests, explore and just mess around without everything being super serious.
PvP is always on so you can fight outside of events but the rule is to not be a jerk about it. Sometimes there will be organized PvP events with rewards and maybe some light betting to make it more exciting. Skill level does not matter. New players and cracked players are both welcome as long as they stay respectful and chill.
The vibe is relaxed friendly and fun. The owners want to build a small community of people who enjoy modpacks and are open to talking about new mods or even swapping modpacks later if everyone gets bored.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPHeadrest SMP PvP Lore And War
Headrest SMP is a survival server that mixes chill community vibes with war and pvp.
From what I saw players are already picking different teams and getting ready for fights. It feels like one of those servers where people actually remember the battles and the betrayals and talk about it later.
The server has lore and team based pvp so it is not just random chaos. You pick a side and then help your team grow and win. If you like servers like unstable smp or lifesteal style stuff this server is aiming for that kind of energy.
Right now they are building up an active community and getting players ready for the launch on December 15. If you want a friendly place but still want wars and tension this server seems like a good mix.
You have to apply to join so it looks like they care about who comes in and they want a decent community.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPClockwork Engineers 3 Modded Adventure

EmberSteal SMP is a multiplayer world that mixes ideas from lifesteal and other power based servers into one place. It is all about fighting and stealing and keeping your progress safe.
When you kill another player you have an equal chance to steal one of their hearts or one of their effect bundles. There is also a third special mechanic that is planned but not shown yet. Everything drops as embers so your gains are never fully safe.
You can craft effect bundles yourself and stack them. If you eat the same bundle again it upgrades from level 1 to 2 and from 2 to 3. All of this is done with custom datapack effects so it feels fresh.
The goal is to make progression feel fast and dynamic but still balanced because other players can steal what you worked for. It is planned for Java and maybe Bedrock and they use simple voice chat so fights and team ups feel more real.
The server is still being worked on and they want people who are down to join or help test it once it is ready probably around mid December.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPHeadrest SMP PvP Wars And Lore
