Legendary Hardcore is a hardcore SMP where death means you are out for good. There are no map resets and there are no revives so every risk feels serious. A lot of players have joined over its first year and tons have died trying to survive.
It stays completely vanilla but uses plugins to make hardcore more interesting. You can get player heads and you can access dead players ender chests. It also has Simple Voicechat and advanced player statistic tracking plus more.
The world feels like a real story because everything is player led and not scripted. People make bases and alliances then it all can fall apart when someone dies. There is even a player maintained wiki that tracks the history and a page for every player who joined lived and died.
They also have an interactive map of the spawn region that shows changes over time. It supports 1.21.11 on Java Edition and Bedrock Edition.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAnarchy.ae Long-Term Vanilla Survival
This server is a long term vanilla survival world that is meant to last for years and not just for short seasons. The world does not reset and there are regular backups so progress actually matters.
The gameplay is simple survival without pay to win stuff. There are no kits and no land claims. Bases can be found so hiding and protecting your build is part of the game. The world feels player driven and you have to rely on your own choices.
The server is made for both Java and Bedrock players and it tries to keep things fair. Movement stays vanilla and unfair movement gets blocked or nerfed so no crazy advantage from one platform.
You still get some helpful commands like sethome home and tpa. Voting gives you one extra home for 24 hours so it is a small reward but not game breaking.
It runs on dedicated hardware in Germany so it is built to be stable and stay up for the long run.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
