I found a survival server with a small community around 90 players and it just started 4 days ago
It is running on 1.21.11 and it is almost completely vanilla. The only changes are anti x ray and some admin stuff so it stays fair
There is a register plugin so cracked players can play and their names do not get stolen
The community also gets to decide what the next season should have so it feels like everyone helps shape it
Fresh Semi Vanilla Season Server
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPSkirn Worldbuilding War Sandbox
Skirn is a brand new survival world that started on March 7th. It is built to feel like a long term place with no resets and a massive 100k by 100k map.
The whole idea is worldbuilding with wars and player made politics. Admins try to stay out of the way so the economy and choices come from the players.
It stays mostly vanilla but it does have Lands for claiming. There are also custom plugins like a fast travel sign warp system and proximity text chat so talking feels more local.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPNew Vanilla Season Starting Soon

They also use a register plugin so cracked players can play and nobody can steal their name.
The cool part is the community decides what the next season should have so it feels like players actually matter.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFresh 1.21.11 Near Vanilla Season Server

This is a fresh start vanilla SMP that kicks off with everyone joining at the same time for Season 2 on March 14 at 9AM AEST. It is meant to feel like normal Minecraft but with light management tools keeping things running smooth.
The early game is paced so it does not get rushed. Week 1 has a 1000 by 1000 world border and the Nether is closed. In Week 2 the border expands and the Nether opens. The End unlocks two weeks after the Nether opens.
PvP is only allowed if both players agree. Griefing and stealing are not allowed. Spawn is a flat plains area with rivers around it and villages nearby. Last season the first day hit over 20 players and applications are open now.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPChill Whitelisted Vanilla SMP 1.21.3
I found a chill whitelisted vanilla survival server for 1.21.3 with a small community vibe. It stays mostly vanilla and it has a few tiny qol plugins.
The rules are light and the mood is relaxed. You can build explore and just hang out. Griefing builds is not allowed but PvP is fair game.
The world border is set to 10k for now. All ages are welcome and the server is hosted in Germany. New features might get added if the community asks for them.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPDinguses United Long Term Builders Realm
Dinguses United is a Bedrock Realm that has been running for years and it is made for people who want a world that actually lasts.
It is focused on builders and long term projects so you can settle in and work on something big. The community is chill and respectful and there are community districts plus builds that people do together.
There are no constant resets and it is not a chaotic place. The mods keep things light but still protect your builds and they do not act weird with power.
It is survival with some quality of life add ons and an End overhaul for deeper late game progress. It also keeps vanilla textures.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPHermitLike Season Two Crossplay Vanilla SMP
I found a server called HermitLike that is starting Season Two and it feels like a HermitCraft inspired SMP. It is only about two weeks old so it is still early game and a lot of people are already active.
It runs on 1.21.11 and it supports crossplay so Java and Bedrock players can be in the same world. That means PC and consoles can play together.
The server stays mainly vanilla with just a few quality of life and moderation plugins. There are no teleports and no warps and no towny style stuff and no land claiming.
They say it is no pay to win with no voting and no crates. The rules are peaceful with no PvP and no stealing and no griefing so your builds and items are meant to stay safe.
There is a starting village at spawn that you can join and later there will be a communal shopping district. They also have an online live map and a staff team watching for trouble and helping people settle in. They also do events and the discord is active.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAnarchy.ae Semi-Anarchy SMP No Wipes
I found Anarchy.ae and it is a long term semi anarchy survival world. It is meant for people who want freedom but still want the server to stay playable.
The world is persistent and it does not do wipes or seasons. Stuff you build can stay for a long time and ruins and roads and old bases become part of the history.
Pvp is on and raiding is allowed so bases can get found and fights can happen. People can team up then split up later and the map shows what players did over time.
It stays close to vanilla and it has light quality of life stuff without turning it into shortcuts. It also has some moderation to keep it fair and stable and it blocks unfair exploits.
You can join on Java or Bedrock because it has crossplay. It runs on dedicated hardware in Germany and it is focused on long term stability and regular backups.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPLiving Medieval Fantasy RP With Voice Chat
This is a medieval fantasy roleplay server where the world feels alive and players push the story forward. The lore is mainly driven by the players with a little staff guidance so it does not feel forced.
You can build towns and try to rule cities then make alliances or start wars if you want. The borders and the world can change based on what people do so it is not just the same thing forever.
It also uses proximity voice chat which makes roleplay feel way more real. You can play as different fantasy races like high elves dark elves dwarves cyclopes automatons and more. Your choices matter and the server leans into that a lot.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
