Spugunke is a new semi vanilla SMP that is really focused on community and chill survival. The world is fresh so early players get to shape everything and become the first towns and groups.
The main idea is player made towns and teams. You can build a town make a shared base farm a lot or work on big projects. You can also join or make teams that do pvp exploration or resource grinding. If you like playing alone that is fine too. The server supports both competitive and relaxed playstyles.
Rules are relaxed but still fair. Griefing stealing and random killing are not allowed. Pvp has to be agreed by everyone so no surprise attacks. Town or team battles can still happen as long as everyone says yes first so there is competition but not chaos.
Spawn is planned as a shared community area where players build together and hang out. People are social and often play at the same time and talk in voice calls so it feels like an active group of friends instead of a dead world.
The server has Java and Bedrock crossplay so people on different platforms can play together. It uses only vanilla style plugins like tpa sethome spawn CoreProtect crossplay and Discord connection to make things easier without changing normal survival.
There is an End event planned for later so people can gear up together. The server is also looking for moderators as the community grows.

Iperios Nations SMP With McMMO Wars

Iperios is an SMP where players can make their own nation and build up power over time. You can train your skills with McMMO then use that to fight in wars and try to take over more land.
You can start a nation with your own government laws and ranks. If that sounds like too much you can just join a nation that already exists and help them grow.
The server also has resource camps you can conquer. These become your first income of geopolitical resources so your nation can expand and unlock more stuff. There are different resources and buildings you can create and the staff gives active support.
It uses plugins like Dynmap Essentials GriefPrevention SilkSpawner and ExcellentEnchants. To play you need to get whitelisted then a staff member can guide you and give you a beginner kit.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPMangoesCraft Season 5 Create Modded

MangoesCraft is a modded server that has been running for about two years and it is now on Season 5. This season started around two weeks ago so the world is still pretty fresh.
The server is focused around the Create mod so you will see big factories moving parts trains and lots of automation. The modpack is not just a random pile of mods and it is picked to match the steampunk engineering style.
People say it runs smooth even when machines get huge. There is also a live webmap that stays up so you can look at the world and find a place to live.
It feels like a server for builders engineers and chill players who want a long term place where your builds do not disappear fast.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPViking Factions OG Fresh Wipe Launch

Viking Factions OG is a classic factions server that tries to feel like the old days but it runs on Minecraft 1.21.4+ with 1.8 style combat. It is all about skill based 1.8 pot PvP and real fights where you have to be good and not just rich.
It just wiped and opens today at 6 PM EST so it is a good time to start fresh and grab land early. The server says it is not pay to win and it keeps ranks cheap with cosmetic only perks.
Raiding is a big deal here with complex style cannoning and even a cannon schematics creator in game so you can design and build without client mods. There is also a bunkers world that is made for base raiding.
For extra stuff to do there are mini games custom dungeons with unique loot and ranked duels with ELO. KoTH happens twice daily and there is a sign shop for in game items. The staff is active and they say they listen and keep things fair.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAU VANILLA ANARCHY NO RULES EVER

I found a vanilla anarchy survival server that is trying to feel like old school Minecraft where you just live with whatever happens.
It is a no rules world with PvP on and raiding and griefing allowed. There are no land claims and no teleporting so you have to travel and survive the normal way.
The world is meant to be long term with no resets and no admin interference. It started in June 2025 so it is still kind of fresh and you can actually leave a mark.
It is hosted on dedicated hardware in Australia for low lag for Australia and New Zealand players. It is open to everyone with no whitelist and there is no monetisation or pay to win stuff and they do not ask for donations.

Jujutsu Origins is a chill survival SMP I found that uses the ORCA Jujutsu Craft mod. It feels like normal Minecraft but you also get cursed techniques to mess with while you play.
The vibe is casual and there is no forced roleplay and no big server lore stuff. PvP is optional so it is not just constant fighting all day.
Most of the time you are building a base and exploring and grinding when you feel like it. You can unlock new jujutsu abilities as you progress and fight mobs and bosses whenever you want. It sounds like a small community where people just want to vibe and play.
