DeadBerries SMP is a small cozy survival server that feels like vanilla but smoother. It has that Hermitcraft style vibe without the content creator pressure. Most players are adults around 20 to 40 and the whole place is meant for long term worlds.
It runs on Java 1.21.11 and it is whitelisted. The server stays close to classic Minecraft but has a few quality of life tweaks like sethome death graves and loot chests that can be re looted.
The community is relaxed and group focused. People build a shared shopping district make community farms and work on big projects together. There are no planned resets so you can take your time and actually finish huge bases and long term builds.
They are looking for friendly respectful players who like teaming up running shops joining community events or just hanging out while mining and grinding.
