CaliCraft is a player run democracy server based out of California and it has multiple gamemodes you can jump into from a lobby.
The big twist is the Emperor elections every two weeks. Players vote and the winner gets real power over the server. They can add or remove plugins across gamemodes and make laws and even imprison people including staff. If you get marked as a fugitive you can end up spawning in prison when you die or get dragged in if caught. The Emperor still has to follow a Constitution and temporary laws can happen during their reign. Some laws can turn permanent through a Discord poll.
There is Modded Survival with custom enchantments and skills and jobs and an auction house plus an economy and custom dungeons. It also has vote crates with strong gear and it is a claim world with a kingdom run by the Emperor.
There is also Vanilla Survival with quality of life stuff like quests and chest sorting and daily rewards. Skyblock is here too with classic island gameplay and some extra addons.
Cobblemon is a separate Fabric server and you need the Cobblemon modpack to play it. You can catch and train and battle Pokemon in Minecraft and you can swap over using the cobblemon NPC at spawn or the server command.
The server also uses a custom resource pack with unique mobs and animals plus elites and dungeon bosses with special drops so it does not feel like normal vanilla exploration.

I found a server called CrownMC RPG and it feels like a big open world survival MMO. You pick your own path and just start building your character with a bunch of skills you can level up.
You can farm for a chill life or focus on crafting and fishing. If you like money stuff there is an economy with shops and an Auction House where players run the market.
There are custom bosses and dungeons too and you can go raid them for special gear and crate keys. Health scales up as you gain experience so you can get way tougher over time.
The wild twist is the monarchy system. The crown is a real thing and if you find and slay the current King you instantly become the new King. You take their claims and can zone their kingdom. It is optional but it makes the server feel like there is always a power struggle happening.
You can also party up with friends and level together. It is basically an RPG SMP with roleplay and PVP if you want to chase the crown.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFresh Towny Factions SMP With Honor PVP
