FabricCraft is a survival server that sticks to real vanilla mechanics because it runs on Fabric. It is semi anarchy so you get a lot of freedom with only a few rules.
There are no land claims and there are no world resets so the world stays the same and players shape it over time. That means you will see trade alliances rivalries and raids and all the weird politics that come with it.
Hacked clients or mods that give you an advantage are not allowed. Griefing is banned within 1k of spawn and it is handled with active moderation instead of claim plugins.
There is also a creative world with no plots and no big space limits so people can test builds before doing them in survival. If you like speedrunning there is a manhunt mode you can play too. Simple voice chat is available for everyone on the server.
