I found a survival multiplayer server that runs in seasons so it does not get boring. The main goal is to become the richest player.
The world is locked to a 1000 block border so space and resources matter. You will probably want to work together at first.
The big moment is the end fight. After that it sounds like teams start doing sabotage and it turns into every player for themselves. You do not need an application but you do need to get whitelisted with your Minecraft name.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPXero SMP Voicechat Alliances Abilities
Xero SMP is a survival server that is trying to be fun and high quality. It feels like a place where the staff actually listens to suggestions and wants the server to keep getting better.
There is a Bliss plugin that lets you unlock cool abilities. You can also form alliances and play the social game with other players.
It has ingame voice chat so talking is way easier while you play. There are weekly events where you can earn gems which helps keep the server alive.
The progression is competitive but the abilities are meant to stay balanced. They say updates happen a lot and the community is growing fast and rewards skill strategy and creativity.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPTrue Vanilla Survival No Claims
I found a server that is trying to be true vanilla survival. It keeps the gameplay simple with no plugins that change how Minecraft works. There are no land claims and nobody is going to hold your hand.
The world is run by the players. You can build whatever you want and make alliances or start wars. You can also just explore and live out in the wild if that is your thing.
There is basically one big rule which is no hacking.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
