This is a community based Minecraft SMP that really focuses on players and not money. There are no paid ranks and no pay to win crates and every perk is something you earn just by playing.
The server uses a bunch of quality of life plugins to make survival feel bigger. You can level up RPG style skills like mining farming and fighting and those skills give you helpful passive abilities and stat boosts over time. There is also a rank system with different paths and the ranks even have build requirements so you always have goals and projects to work on.
Towns are a huge part of the server. Players use a land claiming system to build organized towns and districts and these towns help you reach your rank goals. There is also tons of custom furniture and cosmetics so you can decorate your house and make it look different from normal vanilla builds.
The economy is fully player driven. You set up your own shopkeeper stalls and trade with other players instead of buying from some admin shop. The server is self hosted so it is meant to be stable and last for a long time. You can join from both Java and Bedrock so it is easy to play with friends on different platforms.
Overall this server feels like it wants you to stay for a long time and slowly build up your skills your town and your place in the community without ever being forced to pay for anything.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPBareBonesMP Hardcore Plus Survival
BareBonesMP is a hardcore plus survival server that feels like old school Minecraft. When you die you actually lose a heart and you can go all the way down to only three hearts. To get your hearts back you have to craft a special heart crystal with an echo shard and a diamond block.
You can even go above the normal ten hearts and reach up to twenty but those extra hearts are temporary. When you take damage the extra hearts disappear first so you really feel it when you mess up in fights or caves.

There is a coin economy that is only run by players. There are no normal item shops from the server. You earn coins from killing mobs and looting chests and then you use a trading system and an auction house to buy and sell stuff with other players.
The land claim system is actually a big deal here. You can claim your base and farms and they are totally safe from grief while you are alive. If you log out your land is still protected. But if you die your claims get deleted and your land is open again so dying really hurts.
Teleporting is very limited on purpose. You get a one time randomtp to go far away into fresh terrain and you can invite others when you use it. After that you have home to go back to your bed and spawn to return to the main spawn area. There are no other tp commands so you still have to travel.
The server is fully non pay to win. There is only one rank called VIP and it only gives cosmetic perks so it does not give any gameplay advantage.
