I found a new Minecraft server that is being paid for and it is an economy based SMP.
It has crate keys plus commands like sell and warp. There is also a shop system and more stuff to do while you play and build.

Origin SMP is a survival multiplayer server that just started a new season and it runs on 1.21 for Java and Bedrock.
The whole vibe is story driven and competitive. PvP has a tier system where getting kills moves you up and dying drops you down so fights actually matter.
There is proximity voice chat so people can talk in game and make deals or start beef right on the spot.
There are no land claims so the world is run by trust and politics instead of protection plugins. The world is also finite at 2500 by 2500 blocks so players run into each other a lot.
It is semi anarchy so a lot is allowed but random griefing with no story or purpose can get rolled back to protect the long term SMP stuff.

SteamForge SMP is a modded survival multiplayer server that is all about creativity and community and big builds.

It is not pay to win and you need your own copy of Minecraft to play.

I found IronVail and it is a pure vanilla Minecraft server for people who want the real survival feel. There are no teleport commands and no home command. There are also no land claims so you have to pick a spot build it up and protect it yourself.
It is not meant to be an anarchy place. Cheating like flying or x ray is not allowed and they use automatic anti cheat to help stop it. Profanity is strongly discouraged.
It has a 25 percent sleep feature so night can be skipped when only some players sleep. The server is also tuned for players with higher ping so exploring feels smoother.
Java and Bedrock players can both join which makes it easy to play with friends on different devices.

NerdNu is a medium sized Minecraft community that feels like mostly vanilla play and people actually talk and build together. It is one of the older public multiplayer servers and it aims for that classic belonging feeling.

Both servers are listed as version 1.21.10. The snapshot server is closed right now because of the most recent updates.

GOOMB SMP is a vanilla survival server running an amplified world and it is in Season 2 right now.
The world got reset about two months ago so lots of players are still building new bases and spreading out as the world border expands. At first people had to live closer together but now there is more room for big plans.
