I found a hardcore server where you only get one life and that is it. If you die you are done so every fight feels serious.
It is true vanilla survival with only a few rules. No cheats are allowed but PvP and griefing are fair game.
They also say there is no pay to win and no resets. They do not allow alts either so you cannot just come back on a new account.
The server is brand new and started two days ago so it still feels fresh. It is for people who want real hardcore and want to make their one life count.

I found Taerel Network and it feels like a dark fantasy survival server with its own custom modpacks. Each server has different modded biomes so the world can look alien and kind of creepy.
They have lore about finding a sealed gate and stepping into a place with stone portals under an azure sky. The first area is a small settlement with a copper roof hall and a little tower by a lake. Past the lantern light it gets dangerous and strange things move in the dark so it really pushes exploring with friends.
