I found a survival multiplayer server that feels different from the huge SMPs. It is not packed with tons of players and it does not feel like the economy is ruined.
The owner is really kind and generous and helps new people get started. There is a mace plugin and a lifesteal plugin. You can also use set home so getting around is easier.
It feels underrated and it stays online a lot. The owner might add voice chat if players want it.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPThe Anchor SMP Fresh 1.21.11 Survival
The Anchor is a survival SMP that is trying really hard to treat players seriously and actually listen to feedback. It feels like the staff wants the community to help decide big changes so progress does not get messed up by surprise reworks.
When you join you can play normally or follow the server stuff if you like having more direction. There is a playtime based rank system with long gaps between ranks because the overworld will never reset. There is also a resource world that resets monthly.
Claims matter a lot here because builds are a top priority. Once you reach the second rank your claimed builds are permanent and claimed areas cannot be griefed.
There is also a tag system where you can earn keys by voting or using the vote shop. The crate can give you one of 42 unique tags that show next to your name. The server also has jobs and it supports a fresh economy with player shops.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPVoidNetwork Custom Prison Season 1
