I found Goober SMP and it is a brand new Vanilla plus Java server. It started just a few days ago and it already has around 20 active players so it feels alive.
The server is mostly vanilla but it adds small stuff to make multiplayer more fun. PvP is allowed and people are into building and hanging out so you can fight or make cool projects.
It runs on Java 1.21.11 and it has whitelist on so you need to get added before you can play. It also supports SVC mods and has a head drop plugin so players can drop their heads.
They want a player driven world with towns and community builds. Server wide events are planned too so sometimes it can get chaotic.

TwistedCraft is an adults only vanilla SMP that keeps Minecraft simple. It sticks to the classic survival feel with no mods and no big extras. It only uses a few small quality of life datapacks like multiplayer sleep.
The vibe is inspired by Hermitcraft where adults hang out and build together. People track builds using Dynmap and the rest is pretty open as long as you play nice with others.
Season six started on November 7th and the server is still active. Seasons run for around a year so big long projects have time and slow play is fine. Some players love early game too so resets bring that back when the map restarts.
There are no strict activity rules since real life is busy. Discord is required for communication and the server is content creator friendly. People can take breaks and still come back later.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPRattata SMP Pure Vanilla Survival

I found an SMP that is all about conflict betrayal PvP and loss. If you cannot handle dying or losing items then this is not for you. The server expects you to take hits and keep going.
Everything is meant to be fair. The world is brand new so there is still loot and structures around. Nobody is way ahead and there is no pay to win.
You cannot get offline griefed. If you are not online then people cannot destroy your base. But if you are online there is no special protection so raids can happen and fights decide what happens next.
