I found a true vanilla hardcore SMP where it stays simple with minimal plugins and no ranks or pay to win stuff
The world border is big so you can actually go explore and build far out without feeling cramped
When you join for the first time you spawn with some starter items plus invis and regen so you can sneak away from spawn and get set up
Death matters here because you get tempbanned when you die so every trip and fight feels intense
It supports crossplay so Java 1.21.11 and Bedrock 1.21.131 players can play together
