I found a true vanilla hardcore SMP with a smaller community and it sticks to the game how it was meant to be. There are no ranks and no pay to win and no extra commands outside the normal vanilla ones.
When you spawn you get a few starter items plus invis and regen so you can get away from the spawn area. If you die you get banned for a temporary time and if you run out of lives you are banned for the rest of the season so you have to play careful.
The server is online 24 7 and it has a massive 80k by 80k world border so there is still lots of space and loot to find. It also supports multiple versions and has crossplay so different players can join.

It is an anarchy server with no rules. There are no protected zones and no resets. The world just keeps going even when people get wiped.
Every player you see could be a friend or the one who ends your run. When someone dies everyone sees it and that makes it super intense.

Bleeding Heart SMP is a hardcore survival server where death actually matters but it still turns into stories instead of everyone quitting. It is not pay to win and it is not scripted so most stuff happens because players make it happen.
When someone dies their player head drops. Friends can grab it and build a Revival Shrine to bring them back. But enemies can keep that head locked up so the players end up deciding who stays dead. That leads to trading bluffing betrayals and sometimes straight up assassinations.
The world is huge with a 30 million by 30 million border and it is a no reset world so joining early is a big deal. The Farlands are enabled too and you can actually walk to them if you go far enough.
