I found Konohaven SMP and Season 5 just started and it is trying something new. It is a semi vanilla Java survival server on hard difficulty.
This season the players get to make a lot of the big choices. Stuff like spawn plans shopping areas and roads are meant to be decided by players. People can form committees or run solo and argue it out with builds.
There is no set world border. Chunks will be generated out to 1500 at the start to help with early lag and after that you can explore as far as you want. The seed will be public and the world generation is being tweaked to add new vanilla style features.
It has single player sleep and a live map. Simple Voice Chat is optional and you do not need mods to join. Blaze and Caves Advancements are on with less chat spam. There is also an optional origins datapack and the origin choices will be explained before you pick.
The server is located in the Eastern US in Virginia.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPLUMI HARDCORE ONE LIFE SEASONS
I found Lumi Hardcore and it is a hardcore survival SMP where survival actually matters. The vibe is calm and cozy until you mess up.
It is one life only. If you die you get sent to spectator mode and you stay there until the next reset. There are no revives and no second chances.
The world resets every 60 days with a new seed each season so everyone starts equal. It stays mostly vanilla but it has some extra stuff for building and quality of life like Jake’s Build Tools DecoPlus FurniCraft VeinMiner and a tree vein miner.
There is optional proximity voice chat using Simple Voice Chat so you can talk to players near you or stay muted. It supports Minecraft 1.21.11 and Java and Bedrock can play together.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPDurian SMP Vanilla Launch Soon

Durian SMP is a brand new server that is about to open soon. It is planned for Minecraft 1.21.11 and they are still gathering players right now.
From what I saw it is almost completely vanilla. It has optional Simple Voice Chat if you want it and it also uses some server side performance mods.
The community sounds small but friendly and growing. The server is expected to open in about 2 to 7 days so it feels like a good time to get in early.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
