This is a survival server that feels really old school. It was started in 2020 when the owner and some friends wanted Minecraft to feel simple again. A lot of servers had confusing plugins and land claim systems and it ruined the basic survival vibe. On this server you just play normal survival without claim blocks or weird menus.
The world runs on hard difficulty so it is actually a challenge. Mobs hit hard and you have to think before you go out at night. There is an item based economy so players trade with actual stuff instead of weird custom money. The plugins are only small quality of life things so the game still feels like normal Minecraft.
The staff is pretty hands off so they do not hover over you all the time. The community is small but active and has been around for a while so it feels steady. There is also a discord community where people talk and hang out.
The server is on version 1.21.x and it supports both Java and Bedrock players by using a special port. The host machine is in Texas in the United States so players in that region usually get good connection.
If you want a simple survival world with real risk and not a ton of complicated systems this server fits that style a lot.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPStraight Up Vanilla No Resets SMP

This is a straight up vanilla survival server with no land claims and no teleport commands. It really tries to feel like normal Minecraft. You spawn in and have to walk everywhere and survive on your own or with people you meet.
The world has been running since April 1st 2019 and the overworld has never been reset. That means you can explore super old bases and history that players built over more than six years. It feels like a forever world and they say they want to keep it that way.
PvP and griefing are allowed so you have to be careful where you build and who you trust. There are no factions plugins and no economy stuff. It is just survival with other players the way the game was meant to be played.
They use proximity voice chat with the Simple Voice Chat mod if you want it. It is optional but it makes talking to people nearby feel really cool. The server is optimized so it runs stable and they use anticheat but it is not super in your face. It mainly tries to stop cheaters and keep things fair for normal vanilla players.

The community is pretty relaxed and the owner tries to be active and involved. People do swear sometimes and talk about older topics so it is not really aimed at little kids.

Punishments are up to the moderators and they try to use common sense. Pranks are allowed as long as you do not actually ruin someone else’s build.
To join you have to be in the discord and get whitelisted but after that you can just hop on and play survival with a small laid back group.
