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.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPChill Vanilla+ SMP No Resets
This is a chill Java SMP that uses a vanilla plus style modpack. It feels like regular Minecraft but with a few extra things to make it more fun.
There is a claim system so your builds are safe and protected. PVP is allowed but only outside of claims so you do not lose your stuff in your own base. The server owner says the world will never reset so you can work on long term builds without worrying.
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.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCobblemon Eterna MMO Needs Founders
I found this server called Cobblemon Eterna and it is trying to be a full Cobblemon MMORPG. They are working on competitive leagues and big long term stuff so it feels like a project that is just starting out.
Right now they are looking for volunteers. They need builders people who know configs and mods to help keep things running. It is a hobby project and all the positions are unpaid so it is more about having fun and being part of the founding team.
The project is in its first phase so you get to help build the foundation from the beginning. They want people who are passionate and want to help shape the server. The server will start in English so you need at least basic English to fit in.
If you like Cobblemon and want to build something epic from scratch this feels like the kind of place where you can do that with other people who are into the same thing.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPLodestone Geopolitics And Worldbuilding
Lodestone is a Minecraft server that mixes geopolitics and worldbuilding in one place. It is built around custom ideas that you do not really see on other servers in this genre.
The big feature is Spice Trades. You harvest different spices and then sell them at spawn. The environment you use changes how good your spices are so some land is way better than others. This makes the economy feel different and also makes people want to fight over the best land.
The server uses Towny so players can form towns and nations. You can make alliances or go to war with other groups. It feels like a slow build up where towns grow and then big nation conflicts start.
There are chest shops so players can set up places to buy and sell items with just a chest and a sign. This helps build a player run market on top of the spice system.
Lodestone also has Auraskills. You can level up lots of different skills and unlock new abilities. Even though Auraskills is not custom it is not common on servers like this so it helps change the usual gameplay loop.
Right now Lodestone is in closed beta. You have to apply to be a beta tester and then if you get accepted you can join and start playing on the server early.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPClockwork Engineers Modded Survival
This is a new modded server that just started on 11 28 25. It uses mods like Mekanism Create and Ars Nouveau so it has a mix of tech and magic.
The modpack gets updated every so often and the owner is looking for suggestions for new mods to add. The server has a very small player base right now so it feels calm and you can actually get to know people.
If you want a modded place to play where your ideas matter and the world is still fresh this server is pretty cool.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCountries SMP War And Cities
This server is called Countries SMP and it is all about players acting like different countries.
Here you can declare war and fight other groups. You can also build cities and work on big projects with your friends.
The owner is 1111nondook and they run everything through their community. If you want a place where people make nations and battle and also build cool cities this server is for you.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPExodus Nations Factions Semi Vanilla Wars
This server is called Exodus Factions and it is a semi vanilla world where players make nations and fight wars. It feels like a group of friends from other servers all came together to make something that lasts and is actually fun.
The community is pretty new and friendly and people help each other a lot. Even though it starts peaceful there is a big focus on possible war and alliances later so you can team up or go against other nations.
All of the nations and shared areas are built by players with almost no admin building which makes the world feel more real. There are some quality of life plugins like in game voice chat tree chopping and BreweryX so you can do more than just basic survival.
There is a world border and the nether and end are closed but they added custom crafting recipes to make up for that. The whole thing feels like a player run world where nations rise and fall over time.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPHalcyon Lands PvP Medieval Survival
Halcyon is a Lands PvP server that feels like an old school survival world. It is run by a postgraduate medievalist who really cares about the medieval theme. The server uses a handmade custom world and tries to stay very close to normal vanilla Minecraft while still being on version 1.21.10.
The gameplay is harder on purpose. Progress is slower and it is harder to use meta tricks. You are pushed to be creative and to work with other players. Big wins come from doing brave fights making smart trades and building strong cities and castles. It is more about people and teamwork than about big farms and exploits.
Travel is a huge part of the game. There is no teleporting at all and the biomes are large and different. Players build long roads waystations and secret underground railways to get around. F3 was turned off so you cannot just read your coordinates. Some people sell lodestone compasses and others make big maps or learn to navigate by the sun and the moon.
The server does not force you to follow strict lore. There is no pre built story you have to play. You just join pick a direction punch some trees and your story grows as you meet other players. The plugins and the world are set up to make these player stories happen naturally. There are already player made books art myths and weird superstitions even though the server is still pretty new.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPA Hard Time RL Craft Factions PvP
This server is called A Hard Time and it is a new modded factions server that uses the RL Craft modpack. It is made to be really optimized and balanced so it feels like a fresh version of RL Craft with cool pvp.
The server uses the tricky pvp systems from RL Craft and tries to mix modded players with pvp players. It is made for people who want a hard challenge and like to fight other players.
There are active admins who do not play so they just watch over things. The server has server side add ons that block most cheaters so fights feel more fair.
You need to install the A Hard Time modpack from CurseForge to join and then you can jump into factions and start battling other groups right away.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPMistCraft S2 Modded Origins Survival
MistCraft is a modded Java server that is on season 2 and the world resets every 6 months so it feels fresh but still lets you build for a while.
The server uses the Origins mod and a bunch of extra origin packs so you can pick different races and classes and play in totally different ways. There are magic style mods dark orb crafting and custom origins so your character actually feels special.
The world is amplified so the terrain is really tall and crazy and the border is limited so players are not spread out forever. There are exploration mods with new biomes bosses artifacts relics and dungeons so you always have something to do.
You also get create and its addons plus building mods like bits and chisels and some farming and village mods so you can make cool bases automatic stuff and better towns. There is better combat archery expansion and extra hostility so fights feel more intense.
Quality of life stuff like homes graves onscreen coordinates simple voice chat backpacks and inventory expansion makes it easier to live in this wild world. It is a 16 plus whitelist server so the community leans more chill and players are actually approved before joining.
