Beocraft is a survival server that has been around for many years and it tries to feel like a Hermitcraft style world. It runs on fabric and aims to keep the gameplay very close to classic survival without a bunch of weird fixes.
The server has a long history and the current world has been going for months so it feels lived in with a lot of progress. Players build everything by hand in survival and the builds look really good. There is also a web map so you can see the world from above.
The community feels relaxed and pretty serious about keeping things fair. There is no tolerance for griefing cheating or other annoying stuff. People are there to hang out build cool bases and work on big projects together.
The server is hosted in Europe on strong hardware so it should run well. They are also looking for content creators who already have a following and want to make videos or streams on the server and even get paid for it.

Echelon is a simple survival server that tries to feel like normal Minecraft but smoother. You do not need any mods or special client. You just join with regular Minecraft and play.
The server keeps things clean and not confusing. Menus are not cluttered and commands stay simple. There are NPCs at spawn that talk to you and explain stuff and they give info about how the server works.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPEverbloom SMP Network Survival Seasons

Everbloom SMP is a small network with two different survival worlds and it feels pretty relaxed.
There is a casual survival world that is perfect if you like building and exploring and just peaceful play. It has custom terrain and structures but still feels kind of like normal vanilla. There is no pvp no griefing and no raiding so it is really safe if you just want to build farms and cool bases with other friendly players.
They also have a more standard survival world called Everbloom Survival with seasons. Season 3 starts on the 12th of December so it is a fresh start chance. On this one pvp and raiding are allowed so it has more risk and action. Farming redstone and nether roof access are fully supported so technical players can go crazy. The world border is 75k so there is a lot of space but not so huge that everyone is super far apart.
Both modes are crossplay so people on Java and Bedrock can play together. The server says it is lag free and stable which is really nice if you like big builds or farms.
Overall the community sounds relaxed and wholesome and they focus on creativity and cooperation whether you choose the peaceful casual side or the more intense survival season side.

CloudVale S7 is a hardcore Minecraft server where every death actually matters. When you join you start with three lives. Each time you die you lose one life and when you lose all three you get banned for a few minutes. If you keep dying the ban time goes up all the way to 24 hours. If you stay alive for a while your ban time target goes down and you can earn more lives again.
There is a 24 hour grace period with no PvP so new players can gear up and build safely. After that it turns into full PvP and you have to watch your back. The server blocks combat logging so you cannot just quit to escape a fight.
The server works on both Java and Bedrock clients and does not allow cracked clients. It uses SimpleVoiceChat and BetterTeams so players can make teams and talk to each other while they battle to be the strongest group.
There is a rules system in game. You can type a command to read the rules. If you break the rules you can get punished and if you break the same type of rule three times you get banned. The community hangs out together and the server is meant for players who like intense survival and serious PvP.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPUneasyVanilla Semi Anarchy Survival World

UneasyVanilla is a semi anarchy vanilla server that tries to stay as close as possible to normal Minecraft. It feels like the game you know but with way more chaos and surprise.
The world is over four years old so everything looks lived in and busted. When you first join you spawn inside a maze of lava casts and griefed terrain. It is kind of scary and really cool at the same time. If you can escape spawn you can go out and build bases and explore on your own.
The server has a mix of anarchy and survival. People can fight raid and pull tricks on each other so you always have to watch your back. Still there are some simple rules so the server runs smooth and does not get ruined by cheaters. Staff work to keep things fair and protect the server performance.
The community feels tight and relaxed even though the world is dangerous. You can make alliances do big building projects or just wander and see what other players built and destroyed. Every trip feels like something unexpected could happen.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPLodestone Geopolitical Worldbuilding Beta

Lodestone is a Minecraft geopolitics and worldbuilding server that is going into a closed beta. It tries to give a fresh twist on the usual town and war style.
The main thing I noticed is the spice trade system. You harvest different spices and sell them at spawn and the land you control changes how good your spices are. This makes people want to fight over the best land so the economy and wars actually feel connected.
The server also uses Towny so players can make towns and nations and go to war with each other. There are chest shops so anyone can set up a shop with a chest and a sign and trade items with other players.
There is also Auraskills so you can level up a bunch of skills and unlock different abilities as you play. It fits the worldbuilding and war style because you keep growing your character over time.
To join right now you have to get into the closed beta by applying through their discord and then you can get the server IP from the how to play channel.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFrostboundSMP 18+ Cozy Semi Vanilla

FrostboundSMP is a small semi vanilla server that is still pretty new. It is meant for players who are 18 or older and it is only for non binary players and people who identify as female. The vibe feels calm and welcoming and it is not super sweaty or hardcore.
From what I have seen most of the server is simple survival with a light semi vanilla style. They host weekly events so there is always something to look forward to and it helps people get to know each other better. The server is not crowded and the most people online at once so far was about eight but there are around thirty people in the community already.
If you want a place that feels more like a small friend group instead of a giant public server this one fits that pretty well. It is nice for players who just want to chill and build and hang out with other older players in a space made for non binary and women players.Website

There are about ten active players right now and around twenty members total. It feels like a small and relaxed community where people just play and hang out together.
