I found a new lifesteal server that just started with a small friend group and it feels like a fresh place to fight and survive for a long time.

It also has Java and Bedrock crossplay so more people can join together. The world is pre generated to help with chunk lag and there are leaderboards for kills and K D. There is combat logging protection plus clean chat with minimal spam.
It runs 24 7 and it is still early so joining now means you get in before everything is established.

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.
