I found a survival SMP that is all about playing fair and building cool stuff with other people.
It has a classic survival style with an economy so you can trade and work your way up. There is land claim and grief protection so your base does not get messed up.
People do community projects and events and the staff stays active. The Discord is said to be friendly too. The End is set to open on 28.03.2026 at 4 pm UTC+1 so everyone can hit that part together.
You can play solo or team up with friends and try to build your own empire.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPTop Semi Vanilla Survival SMP
I found Crafted Survival and it feels like a semi vanilla SMP where people actually stick around. It is built around community and a simple economy that uses diamonds so trading feels real.
It has land claiming so your builds stay safe and it is focused on PvE with no griefing. There is no keep inventory so it still feels like true survival.
You can make player shops and also use a shops menu to browse stuff fast. There is a live world map you can check in your browser and there are separate resource worlds so the main world does not get trashed.
It supports Java and Bedrock crossplay so more friends can join. There are ranks and vote rewards plus weekly events so there is always something going on.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPOnion SMP 1.21.11 Crossplay Survival
Onion SMP is a survival SMP server that runs on 1.21.11 and it has crossplay so more people can join in.
It has claims so your stuff can stay safe and it also has keep inventory so losing gear is not as painful.
You can use rtp to get out into the world fast and there is combat log protection so fights are not cheesy. There are teams too so you can squad up and build together.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
