I found a chill SMP for Java that is trying to feel alive and not dead. It is semi vanilla so it still feels like normal Minecraft.
The server has custom mobs and custom items. It sounds like extra stuff to find and fight but it does not mess up the vanilla vibe.
The rules are handled in their Discord and you need to get whitelisted to join.
