Ordinary SMP is a vanilla survival server on Java that feels like a small friendly neighborhood. It is a whitelisted place so the players are picked a bit more carefully and it helps keep everything respectful and calm.
The server is always updated to the newest version so right now it is running 1.21.11 with all the latest features. People on here like to build and explore and they work together on big community projects. It feels like a group of friends even if everyone is from different countries.
There is grief protection because they use a tool called Ledger to check what happened if something gets broken or stolen. That makes it safer to build and actually care about your base without worrying all the time.
The server also has BlueMap so you can see the world on an interactive map while you play. It has Simple VoiceChat to talk in game and AudioPlayer for custom audio. There is a custom resource pack with special cosmetics trophies and event rewards that fit a HermitCraft inspired theme.
They run server wide events like pvp battles build contests and big community projects so there is almost always something to do. If you like building exploring redstone or just chilling and vibing with other players this server fits that style really well.
