I found Total Vanilla and it is a simple survival server that sticks to the real vanilla feel.
There is no tpa and no home commands so you actually have to travel and survive like normal. It feels like the game with no shortcuts and no gameplay changes.
The world border is 300k and the nether roof is enabled. People explore and build whatever they want and the world started 7 days ago so it still feels fresh.
I found 6b6t and it is an anarchy server that is like 2b2t but with less rules.
People say there are around 150 to 250 players online every day and there is no queue so you can just get in.
Java and Bedrock and MCPE can play and cracked players are allowed too so it feels super open and chaotic.
Mortal SMP is a Java anarchy server that is all about chaos and fighting with friends.
The big thing here is a custom item called the Immortality Star. It gives you near immortality so people gear up and battle over it.
There is also an epic End fight. Players are pushed to team up make a group and go for the star.
They want it to stay teen friendly and comfortable so they are looking for ages 13 to 16. The server is hosted on Aternos and players can get startup access so you can play when you want.
I found an Asia region survival server that is all about ranked grinding and proving you are the best.
It runs on Java Edition version 1.21.8 and it supports cracked offline mode so more people can join. It stays online 24 7.
It has TPA and warps plus other quality of life plugins. The world border is 3000 by 3000 so it feels tight and competitive. Player cap is around 20 to 25 so it should stay focused.
I found a semi anarchy survival server that tries to keep the vanilla feel. It started on October 11th 2024 and it is hosted in New York City. The world is meant to be long term with no map resets.
It is online all day and it supports Java versions from 1.7.2 to 1.21.11. They recommend 1.21.10 so things run smoother. The world border is huge at 2 million blocks.
There is no pay to win and no teleporting. Griefing and PvP are allowed. The only command they allow is /spawn so players far away can get back to civilization. Nether roof access is allowed. Phantoms are removed and only half the players are needed to skip the night.
They still have a few rules. No exploits. No lag machines. No duping. No spamming. No harassment or racial slurs in chat.

Season 2 is live with a fresh start and a bunch of additions. Survival is brutal and you have to be smart to last.
There is also a big expansion called the Wasteland Dimension. It brings new gear to fight over plus massive mega structures with mysteries and valuable secrets. It also has its own currency with a new player driven economy and trade. A new spawn point and a custom generated map set the tone for the new challenges.
Lumenor SMP is a survival server that feels balanced and actually organized. It runs all the time and it lets Java and Bedrock players play together so almost anyone can join.
The cool part is the role system. You pick a Passive role if you want to build explore trade and grow your base in peace. Or you pick the PvP role if you want to fight compete and push for dominance. Both roles are in the same world so it stays lively without forcing everyone to play the same way.
The world has custom biomes and custom structures to find. There are player trading shops and the progression is meant to feel fair. They also say they have strong anti cheat and active management and they try to keep things simple so it does not feel overwhelming.
This server is all about Factions and that old school raiding feeling. You make a faction then build a huge base and try to protect it from enemies.
The fighting looks like a big focus since it talks about smooth PvP and custom KOTH fights. There is also an economy and a premium coinshop so players can grind and trade and get extra stuff.
The warzone is where everyone fights for control and tries to take over. It feels like the kind of place where you raid the weak and go for domination with your team.
I found a vanilla anarchy server that has been running for almost a year and it is all about survival and player made chaos.
It supports Java and Bedrock and it also works for console players through adding a friend.
The big thing is it is no hacks at all. That means no hacked clients no cheats no xray even in resource packs. They also do not allow exploiting server bugs crashing the server making lag or using macros and automation tools. Chat spam gets you auto kicked.
