SurvivalTales SMP is a new semi vanilla survival server that just opened and it is ready for new players. It has a friendly community based in the EU and the whole idea is to make survival feel better and more fun.
The server works for both Java and Bedrock so friends on different platforms can still play together. The world has custom generation and custom hand made structures in the Overworld the Nether and the End so exploring feels fresh. There are also new mobs to discover which makes the adventure feel different from normal.
The economy is player based and the grind is meant to be slow so progress actually feels like it matters. There is anti grief so people can build and not worry about their stuff getting ruined. There is a live map so you can see the world from a browser and plan where you want to go.
Ranks are earned by voting and there is no pay to win at all so everyone can reach goals just by playing and supporting the server. The server is focused on fair survival gameplay and a chill community where you can start your own survival tale with others.

New Towny Server No Resets

I found a new Towny server called GamerHub Towny and it is built around towns and a small friendly community. The big thing is it has no resets so your builds can stay.
Griefing and stealing are not allowed so it feels safer to play. A lot of the players are from Oceania and the US and people are ready to help new players.
It has ingame ranking that uses ingame money and it also has Dynmap so you can see the world. There are player warps and player shops plus a sell only server shop. It also has Jobs and MCMMO.
It usually has a few players on but it gets more active when the owner streams and it can hit 8 or more online. The server supports version 1.21.10 or similar and it also has a Bedrock port.

Viking Factions OG is a classic factions server that is trying to feel like the old days but it runs on Minecraft 1.21.4+. The big deal here is the combat. It uses 1.8 style pot PvP so fights are more skill based.
It is not pay to win and the ranks are cheap and not overpowered. Raiding is a huge part of it with complex style cannoning. There is even an in game cannon schematics creator so you can design and build cannons without any client side mods.
There is a dedicated bunkers world for base raiding. You can also do custom dungeons for unique loot. If you like proving yourself there are ranked duels with ELO.
KoTH happens twice daily and there are mini games for extra rewards and fun. The staff team is active and mature and they say they listen. The economy is meant to stay balanced so raiding feels fair.
