Minearchy is a long running Java 1.21.11 server that feels like a real community and you can jump in with no mods.
It is mostly survival with grief protection and chest shops so your builds and your stuff can stay safe. There is a balanced economy plus auctions and player warps so trading and traveling is easy.
There is a skill system with mcMMO and there are daily and weekly quests with special events. You also get a live dynmap so exploring the world is way less confusing.
If you want fights there are dedicated PvP and PvE zones. The server also says it is not pay to win so everything is earned by playing.
When you want a break from survival there are lots of minigames like TNT Run and TNT Tag plus prop hunt parkour party games kit PvP and more.

Lounge SMP is a community ran survival server on 1.21.11 where people try to build a real place together.
The world is still pretty fresh so it is not fully looted. You can explore and find your own spots without feeling late.
There are towns you can join and some have their own lore. Other groups are more relaxed about building style and palettes. You can also make your own town if you want.
They run weekly events with rewards and this week is a parkour event. Bedrock players can join too.
