SurvivalMC is a semi vanilla SMP that tries to feel like normal Minecraft but a bit smoother. It runs on Minecraft 1.21.10 for both Java and Bedrock so lots of people can join.
From what I saw the server adds quality of life plugins and datapacks that do not ruin the normal survival feeling. The goal is to make gameplay better without turning it into a crazy modpack.
The community looks pretty active and friendly. They have a big discord with hundreds of members and the staff team is very active and ready to help players.
The server has been around since July 21st 2020 and they say it is lag free and focused on giving a nice survival experience. They are also celebrating a grand reopening after taking a break to improve things.
They use a plugin called Bluemap so you can check out the world map from the web and see all the builds from above.
If you want a long term semi vanilla survival world with an active community this server feels like a good pick.
