Near Vanilla is a semi vanilla survival server that has been running for years and it feels really stable and cozy. The world is on hard difficulty and the players like to build collect and explore together. There are big group projects and fun player competitions and a busy shopping district so it feels like a small Minecraft town.
The community is 18 plus and everyone is expected to be mature and respectful. There is a strict rule against hacking glitching and duping and also no griefing no stealing and no bullying. Toxic behavior is not welcome so the server tries to stay chill and drama free.
The server is very community driven. People talk a lot on Discord and share ideas and jokes. When there are big changes they are talked about with the players first. Suggestions are always listened to and staff is around to keep everything running smooth.
There is a Dynmap you can see on their website so you can look at the world from above. It helps you find biomes and see where other players are building. If you like long term survival with a strong community and you are an adult this server feels like a good place to settle in and make some cool builds and friends.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAurora SMP Season 1 Community Warfare
Aurora SMP is a small survival server that is all about building a community and sometimes having big wars.
The server is starting fresh with Season 1 on December 15 so everyone begins at the same time. It is a fabric 1.20.1 Java server with some quality of life mods and a dynmap plugin.
From what I can tell the main idea is to make friends build alliances and show off your building skills. The vibe is pretty laid back but there is still room for big conflicts between groups.
If you want to join early and help shape a new community Aurora SMP seems like a good place to start.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPStonecrest Towny Inspired Roleplay Survival Server
Stonecrest is a hard difficulty survival server inspired by classic Towny gameplay. The focus is on player driven role play, where the community shapes the world and its politics over time. One player can rise to become the King or Queen of the entire server, climbing the levels of power through in game actions and interactions. Players create their own stories while still enjoying a familiar survival experience. PvP is toggleable across the entire server, keeping peaceful players and builders safe unless they choose to take part in war events. An economy based on diamonds and a limited world size help keep players interacting closely. The server is non whitelisted, uses a dynmap for world viewing, and supports versions from 1.19 to 1.20.5.
