The Perch is a Java SMP server that is trying to feel like a real long term Minecraft home with no resets. It is built around a community first vibe where people can play without toxicity or drama.
It has a lot of familiar survival features but they are done in a more tailored and balanced way. The server also tries hard to keep the survival feel so it does not get bloated and you can toggle off features you do not like.
They talk with players a lot through suggestions tickets and bi monthly feedback forms. They also post weekly change logs so you can see what changed and they run monthly events to bring everyone together.
There is a playtime ranking system where you unlock perks by playing. There is also a fair economy with lots of player run shops and small gameplay tweaks to make things nicer. It also has a web map that lets you view all worlds.
The listing says it supports 1.21.11.
