This is a brand new hardcore vanilla style SMP that just opened and it feels really fresh. The world is less than a week old so you are not super behind yet.
It runs on the newest Minecraft update with stuff like copper golems spears and horses that can swim. The server is very close to true vanilla with only minimal plugins. There are no ranks and no pay to win so everyone has the same chance to survive.
This server is hardcore so when you die you get tempbanned instead of just respawning. That makes every fight and every cave run feel scary and fun. There is a large world border so everyone still feels like they are in the same world and not a million blocks apart.
When you first join you get some starter items plus invis and regen so you can sneak away from spawn safely and start your own base without getting spotted right away.
The server is crossplay so Java players and Bedrock players can join together. Java uses version 1.21.11 and Bedrock uses 1.21.131. If you like real hardcore survival with no pay to win and you want a fresh world this server fits that perfectly.

This server is a hardcore SMP called MC Bloodlines. It is made to feel like those Minecraft civilization experiments you see on YouTube but it is always running and not just a short event.
The server is invite only. Only people who are already in the world can invite new players. This makes the population grow slowly and kind of like real life. It also helps keep trolls out and keeps the community more active.
There are a bunch of secret tweaks and mechanics in the game. There are no guides. Players have to figure everything out by themselves. So paying attention and being dedicated actually matters a lot.
There is a built in clan and family system too. You do not just spawn alone on a hardcore world. You are invited into a clan and into a family. You become part of a story that started before you and will keep going after you.
Most clans are looking for new members right now so this is a good time to try to join.

CaveMC Season 2 Underground Semi Anarchy

CaveMC is a semi anarchy survival server where the overworld is completely underground. There is no surface at all. The whole world is just caves with custom generation made by real Minecraft developers.
Season 2 is a fresh start for everyone and the server is enhanced vanilla. The caves have different biomes resources and structures so it feels like a full world but under the ground. Survival is really hard and only players who plan and grind will last long.
There is also a new Wasteland dimension. It is a big expansion with its own custom generated map. In the Wasteland you can fight for brand new powerful gear search huge mega structures and uncover secrets and resources. The Wasteland has its own currency and a new player economy so trading and buying stuff feels different there.
The server has a new spawn built for this season and for the Wasteland challenges. From what I see the whole idea is to create a brutal underground experience with lots of exploration pvp and grinding for the best gear.

There are protections against crazy speed cheats and against really bad chat spam so things stay somewhat fair. You can spend vote tokens in an in game shop to get custom name colors and custom motds. The server also tracks your playtime kills and deaths and gives rewards when you hit certain milestones.
