This server is called SurviveWithUs and it is a semi vanilla SMP that tries really hard to feel like normal Minecraft but better. It is focused on quality of life stuff and on having a strong community instead of crazy big plugins that change the whole game.
From what I saw the community is small but very close and some of the people have been together for like seven years. Everyone can help with big decisions and there is a place where players can suggest new ideas for the server. Most of the plugins are custom so the owners can add things the players ask for which makes the server feel very personal.
The server is totally against pay to win. You do not need to spend money to get anything important. You also do not have to vote every day to rank up. Instead they made a custom system where you level up just by playing. Voting only gives thank you rewards and is not needed to progress.
The whole goal of SurviveWithUs is to feel like an old school server where the owners are present and the players actually know each other. It is meant for people who want a chill survival world and a friendly community to play with over a long time.
