I found a brand new crossplay SMP that just started and it has a lifesteal twist. It is made to feel close to vanilla with only minimal plugins.
The player count is low right now since it is fresh which makes it a good time to join early and try to rise above everyone.
There are very few rules so it feels more free like how a lot of people want an SMP to be.
