I found this server called JetSMP and it is a small whitelist survival server on Java.
It runs on dedicated hardware so it is self hosted and feels stable. The owner keeps it online a lot and actually maintains it which is pretty nice.
The server uses mods and Simple Voice Chat so people can talk while they play. It feels like they want a relaxed chill style of survival and not some super sweaty speedrun thing.
To join you have to ask for whitelist access first. New players are welcome and the whole vibe is to just chillax and hang out while you play Minecraft.
