I found this Minecraft server called Malgazar and it is a pretty chill vanilla style world. The server runs mostly vanilla with just a few quality of life plugins so it still feels like normal Minecraft.
There is a small community that feels really tight and people are nice and active. Players seem to enjoy building and surviving together and they want more positive people to join in.
The staff take moderation serious so griefing almost never happens. They watch over the server a lot and they even decided to unban some small time offenders and put them on a watch list so they get a second chance. If someone does bad stuff again they get banned for good.
The world is not tiny either. They recently expanded the Overworld Nether and End borders from about 4.5k to 11k so there is more room to explore and make bases.
If you just want a solid vanilla survival server with a good community and you like being a nice player this server fits that pretty well.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPSurviveWithUs SMP – Cozy Semi Vanilla 1.21.7
This is a semi vanilla survival server that feels really cozy and calm. It tries to keep the normal Minecraft feeling but still adds some quality of life stuff to make things smoother. There is no crazy stuff like huge power plugins that change the whole game.
The community is small but very close and some of them have known each other for years. Players help make big decisions and there is a place where people can suggest ideas for new features. A lot of the plugins are custom made so the owners can add things that the players actually want.
The server is strongly against pay to win. You do not need to spend money to get anything important. You also do not have to vote every day just to rank up. Instead there is a custom system where you level up just by playing on the server. If you choose to vote you can get a little reward but it is not required to progress.
Overall it feels like an old school community server that cares more about the players than about being a giant network. It is meant for people who just want to chill survive and build with others who actually talk and remember you.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPGildedAbyss Modded Community SMP Events
GildedAbyss is a new modded SMP that is all about the community and how everyone interacts with the world. The first season starts really soon and the timing even depends on how many people join so it feels like we are all part of the launch.
The world has tons of cool biomes to explore because it uses big biome mods to make everything look fresh and interesting. There are special items you can earn with certain methods so it feels rewarding when you figure them out.
You can choose an in game race called an Aspect and use that to your advantage which makes everyone feel a little different when they play. There are extra ores and new tools and weapons so early and late game progression both feel more fun.
The Create mod is also on the server so you can build machines and contraptions as long as they stay reasonable. The owner wants suggestions from players and is planning a lot of events before and after opening so there should always be something happening.
The server is whitelist only and you get in through a ticket system where you talk to the owner or a moderator. If they think you fit the server style you get added and can join the community.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPLegacy Simple Hardmode Survival Economy
This is a hard mode survival server that is all about diamonds and trading. Players run a diamond based economy and try to reach the top by trading wagering and even sabotaging each other. It feels kind of like those big economy series you see online but with regular players.
The gameplay is close to vanilla with a vanilla plus feeling. There are only minimal mods and some data packs that are meant to be quality of life. Stuff like land protection and basic commands such as home and back are there so you do not lose everything for no reason. The rest is just normal hard mode survival.
The community is focused on free speech and open trade. There is limited moderation so people can talk more freely but there are still staff who keep things from getting totally out of control. Most players seem skilled and serious about survival and the economy but they are also welcoming to new people.
If you want a survival multiplayer world that is challenging and you like to grind trade and try to outplay other people in a diamond economy then this server is made for that.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPNew Vanilla Survival Fabric Server
This is a brand new vanilla Minecraft survival server that runs on Java and uses Fabric. It feels clean and simple and it just lets you play normal Minecraft without a lot of extra stuff.
You can claim land to keep your base and builds safe so random people cannot grief everything you make. Redstone and farms work the way they are supposed to which is really nice if you like building automatic things.
The server is hosted on a strong dedicated machine with a Ryzen 9800X3D so the gameplay feels really smooth and not laggy. There is no pay to win so you do not have to spend money to keep up with other players.
Anyone can join and you are welcome to invite your friends and just hang out and play survival together.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPEmberline SMP – Small 20 Player Vanilla
Emberline SMP is a small survival server that is meant to stay around 20 players max. The owner is tired of huge servers with like a hundred people and also tired of servers that never even start.
The server is vanilla style and only has a few extra things. It has proximity chat so you can talk to people who are near you in game. It also has one player sleep so nights can pass faster and it has player head drops.
You join the discord and fill out an application. When they hit 20 people in the discord they start the world and that is the whole group. It sounds like a simple survival server where everyone actually gets to know each other and play together instead of getting lost in a giant crowd.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPNew Vanilla SMP For Small Creators
