This is a really old school vanilla survival server that has been around since April 1st 2019. The main world has never been reset so everything players build and do stays and the world has a long history to explore.
The gameplay is straight up survival with no land claims and no teleport commands like tpa or home. There is no currency stuff and no factions plugins that change the normal game. PvP is allowed and griefing is also allowed so you have to be careful who you trust and where you build.
The server runs stable and they try to optimize performance without changing how Minecraft normally feels. There is an anticheat but it is meant to stay out of the way and just stop obvious exploits so legit players can play fair.
They also support proximity voice chat using the Simple Voice Chat mod so if you install it you can talk to people nearby in game. If you want a forever style vanilla world where your survival stories really matter this server fits that vibe.
Straight Up Vanilla No Resets SMP
Jujutsu Craft Modded SMP Progression Grind
I found a modded SMP called Jujutsu Origins Reborn and the big hook is the Jujutsu Craft mod by Orca. It is a standard survival world but it has a deep power system and a lot to learn.
You use cursed energy and a cursed technique to get stronger. Progression is based on grades and you go from Grade 4 up to Special Grade. If you push far enough you can reach things like domain expansion.
This server is not super casual if you want to climb fast since it takes skill prep and grinding. It can still be chill if you just want to roleplay a character and hang out. They also talk about adding lore later.
To start you join their Discord then you make a spin ticket so your technique can be rolled. If you do not like it there are events and trading so you can try to get something else. You also pick sorcerer or curse and that mainly matters for team events. Then you download the modpack add the IP and jump in with rtp if you want.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPSmall Semi Vanilla SMP Starting Soon

I found a brand new Minecraft server made for adults only 18+. It is for people who still love the game and want to play with other older players.
It is pure vanilla and it runs on 1.21.11. The community is small right now and it seems friendly and welcoming.
The server is whitelisted so you have to apply before you can join. The main vibe is making friends and playing normal Minecraft together.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPMinecraftOffline Anarchy With Permanent Map
MinecraftOffline is an anarchy server where players can do their thing and the world is meant to last. The map is permanent so builds and damage can stick around for a long time.
It runs on version 1.21.11 and it uses a custom plugin suite. The server is based in Finland so it should feel smoother for players in Europe.
The hardware is listed too so it seems like the owner cares about keeping it stable. If you want a server that sounds serious about uptime and long term chaos this one fits that vibe.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPHermitcraft Style Vanilla Plus Crossplay SMP
I found NisseSMP and it is a HermitCraft inspired survival server with a vanilla plus feel. It supports both Java and Bedrock crossplay so more people can play together.
The vibe is built on trust and fair play. There is no griefing and no PvP so it is more about building and surviving with friends.
There are no land claims so you are expected to respect other players builds. The server also has a player driven economy with shops trading and virtual currency.
It is open access with no whitelist. They also have a live map and the community looks active with around 40 to 60 players online at peak times.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
