I found a survival server running on 1.21.10 and it feels like a mostly vanilla SMP with a clean setup.
The big twist is custom structures placed around the world so exploring does not get boring and you can stumble into cool stuff while roaming.
It also supports joining from multiple Minecraft versions because it uses ViaVersion and ViaBackwards so you do not have to be exactly on 1.21.10.
The community is small and still growing and the whole place is meant for building exploring or just chilling without feeling like another number. Performance is also said to be stable.
Vanilla Survival SMP With Custom Structures
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPDavidscloud Survival SMP Crossplay Network
Davidscloud is a survival SMP network with a friendly community and it has been around since 1.7.10. It is built for long term play with no pay to win and it supports cross play so Java and Bedrock players can join together.
The server focuses on fair gameplay and keeping your builds safe. It uses grief prevention claims where you start with 2000 claim blocks and you earn 120 more per hour. Pets are protected too and there is an active admin team that helps when you need it.
It has quality of life stuff that does not break survival. There is a banking system that earns interest while you play and a survival spawn market with merchants where you can buy things like potions fish and wood.
You can explore multiple worlds including a main survival world and an amplified world with 1.18 plus caves and cliffs terrain. They also say an event world a creative plot world and hub travel are coming soon.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPChill Earth SMP With Voice Chat
I found an Earth SMP server that runs on both Java and Bedrock so more people can play together.
The world is a scaled down version of real Earth and it already has a bunch of towns and cities made by players. There is a modern New York City with tall skyscrapers and there are also classical style towns in Europe plus more projects all over the map.
It is pretty chill and collaborative and people hang out a lot. The server uses voice chat and it has a live map viewer. It also has cross play support and extra stuff like custom heads custom image maps and custom armor stands.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPChill Semi Vanilla Nations Server
I found a semi vanilla survival server that is faction based and pretty chill. It is cracked so more people can join and play.
The server has a few mods like Stellarity and it also has graves so you can get your stuff back after you die. If you like nations style gameplay you can join a group and work with other players.
There is a nation called Zenith that is recruiting players right now. You can apply to join their group or you can just join the server and play your own way.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPExplore Our Minecraft Server World Map
I found a Minecraft server that is showing off an overview map of its world.
It feels like a place where the world itself is the main thing to check out and explore. If you like seeing what a server world looks like before you jump in then this is that kind of post.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAvalonEarth EarthSMP Towny Wars
AvalonEarth is an EarthSMP style server with a big 1 to 500 map so there is tons of space to explore and claim land.
It uses Towny and the whole point is making towns and nations. You can start a nation right away because the server gives starter money so you do not have to grind first.
There is a lot of conflict and wars if you like PvP and politics. If you do not want that you can still play peaceful and try to avoid the fighting.
Money mainly comes from jobs plus farming and fishing. The server has seasons and season two is running now with a growing community.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAelythera 16+ Fantasy RP With Steampunk Roots
Aelythera is a 16+ Minecraft roleplay server that is new and still building up. It has lots of planned events and it is made for meeting new people and playing as your character in a bigger story.
The lore starts in a normal world called Koriam with different regions and cultures and steampunk level tech. A long time ago people vanished with no clue why and now it is happening again. Your character gets taken from Koriam and thrown into a new world with magic and ruins from an old civilization.
A big part of the server is discovery. You try to figure out your new powers and your new home. You also try to rebuild the technology you lost but it is not easy and even basic tools can be hard to make. You can focus on research and exploring or on trying to invent stuff again while the mystery of the ruins hangs over everything.
The staff team has experience from other roleplay servers and they aim to make the community feel welcoming and included. They also want to listen to player suggestions including ideas for the lore.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCozy Modded Survival With Proximity VC
I found a small Minecraft Java server that is running on 1.20.1 with Fabric. It is a chill modded world with about 4 to 5 regular players.
They use a custom mod list that adds new monsters plus weapons armor furniture and more. The main idea is to explore and build a world that feels lived in with cozy bases shared towns and paths.
It is not a sweaty place and it is not PvP focused. People play at their own pace and it is more about relaxed teamwork and good vibes.
They also use proximity voice chat so you can talk while building or when you run into someone while exploring.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCreate Nations SMP With Terralith Builds
This is a chill modded SMP that is based around Create and a bunch of its add ons. People build big factories and do automation and also mess with trains.
The world uses Terralith so the terrain looks really lush and scenic and it gives lots of cool places to build. The server is about nations and lore and community projects so you can team up and build stuff together.
PvP and conflict is mutual only between nation owners so it is not the main focus. The server is up most of the time but you might see random restarts sometimes.
It also has Farmer’s Delight for better food. There are copycat style building tools and Macaw’s building mods for more decoration. There is Superb Warfare for extra gear and tech but it is not the main focus. YUNG’s better structure mods are in too like better strongholds and desert temples and more.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPChill Survival Hub With Creative World
I found a chill Minecraft community called Syracuse Nation that is focused on survival but also gives you a separate creative world for big builds.
It runs on Java 1.21.11 and it has cross play so console players can join too using BedrockConnect. There is a hub that lets you get to the city the creative world and the survival world.
The server has a player economy with shops plus quests with more being added. There is also a bank to store valuables and random TPA even your mount can teleport with you. They also have proximity chat and they say the community is friendly with no pay to win.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
