I found a normal SMP that is launching on Feb 20. It is meant to feel simple and close to vanilla.
There is no economy system and it is not modded. It uses only a few plugins but they are not supposed to change gameplay much.
The server supports crossplay and it is up 24 7. They also say there will be no resets so your stuff can stick around long term.

I found a cozy survival server that feels old school and calm. It is made for builders who want a long term world and like playing slow.
There is no PvP so it stays cooperative and peaceful. The world is meant to be forever with no wipes.
It also keeps things close to vanilla with only minimal plugins. There are no pay to win systems so it feels fair for everyone and it does not try to be flashy.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPOakGlow True Survival Semi Vanilla 1.21.11
