FabricCraft is a survival server that stays close to real vanilla mechanics because it runs on Fabric. It is for people who want farms and redstone to work the normal way.
The server is semi anarchy so there are only a few rules and you get lots of freedom. There are no land claims so players can raid and fight and start rivalries.
There are also no world resets so the world is persistent and shaped by players over time. People make alliances and trade and start drama.
Hacked clients and any mods that give unfair advantages are not allowed. There is a simple voice chat mod available for everyone. If you like speedrunning there is a manhunt mode you can play too.

Ashenreach is a public long term survival server where the world is built to feel grounded and lived in. People can play normal Minecraft and build explore travel and form groups. But it is also made for real choices and conflict and cooperation instead of just grinding overpowered gear.
