This server is called Syracuse Nation and it feels like a chill place where people just want to build and hang out. It is a survival server but it also has a separate creative world so you can grind gear and also do big creative projects.
There is a city that keeps growing and it even has vehicles so exploring around actually feels different. There is a player economy and shops so you can trade stuff instead of only grinding alone. There is also a bank where you can store your valuables so you do not lose everything.
The server has quests and they are adding more so it gives you goals to work on. There is a hub that lets you go to the city the creative world or the survival world so everything is easy to reach. They even have random teleport and your mount teleports with you which is really nice.
The staff seem active and helpful and the community is friendly and not pay to win. There is proximity chat so talking to people near you feels more real. It runs on Java 1.21.11 and they also let Xbox and PlayStation players join using BedrockConnect so friends on different systems can still play together.
The server is still in active development and they keep adding new features buildings and systems. Early players can help shape the world and the community so it feels like you are there from the start instead of joining a finished server.
Syracuse Nation Chill Survival City
Taerel Network Dark Fantasy Modded SMP
I found a modded survival server that feels like you stepped into a dark fantasy story. It has lore about a sealed gate and stone portals that lead to strange new worlds. The world has colorful wonder but it also feels dangerous at night.
The server uses custom modpacks and each server has different modded biomes so the land can feel alien and unfamiliar. There is a small settlement vibe in the lore with copper roofs dark oak beams and worn white plaster plus a lake and a weird blue leaf tree.
The map does not reset so it is meant to be a long term place to live and explore. Staff are said to be friendly and active and the owner is active and happy to help.
It is whitelisted so you have to contact the owner to get approved before you can join.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPLuminary Falls Adult SMP No Resets

Luminary Falls is a cozy survival SMP for adults who want a long term place to play. It is whitelist only and it is 18+ with a welcoming vibe.

I found Anarchy Network and it is a semi anarchy survival server that tries to feel like real Vanilla Minecraft. It started on October 11th 2024 and it is hosted in New York City.
It stays online all the time and it lets Java players join from 1.7.2 up to 1.21.11. They recommend 1.21.10 so things run smoother.
The world is huge with a 2 million block border and there are no map resets. There is no teleporting and no pay to win stuff. PvP and griefing are allowed so you should build smart.
The only command they allow is /spawn so players far away are not stuck forever. Nether roof is allowed. Phantoms are removed and only half the players are needed to skip the night.
They still block some stuff like exploits lag machines duping spamming and harassment or racial slurs in chat.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPGlowSMP Vanilla Plus With Claims
GlowSMP is a Vanilla plus SMP that just launched and it runs on 1.21 through 1.21.10 for both Java and Bedrock. It feels like a place to build grind or just chill with other players.
Claims are on so you do not have to stress about griefing. There are a bunch of quality of life changes like voice chat and messages better harvesting chest sorting a gradient tool graves and a live map.
Fishing is a big thing here because there are lots of new fish and you can sell them for money plus there is a leaderboard for the best fisherman. There are also 11 special enchantment books for building and gathering like breaking a whole tree at once or getting haste for mining.
The jobs system pays you for most actions and you do not have to pick only a few jobs since you are in every job at the same time. There is also a centralized storage network where you can set up a terminal in your base and link chests so you can search and store items way easier.
The server is free to play and everything is meant to be obtainable by everyone. There are vote ranks and there is a shop if you want to skip some hassle but it is not required.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPXYZ Vanilla Semi-Anarchy Survival
XYZ Vanilla is a survival server that feels close to normal Minecraft but it leans semi anarchy so stuff can get crazy. It runs on hard difficulty and it tries to keep things simple with only a few plugins and gamerule changes.
It works for both Java and Bedrock players. The world started on January 15th 2026 and it has a 3 million world border that will grow later. There are no map resets.
You can go on the nether roof and you can also toggle phantom spawning with a command. Night skips when 25 percent of players sleep. Respawning is more spread out around spawn.
The rules are pretty short. No hacks or exploits no lag machines and no duping except for TNT carpet and rails. It is recommended to use the latest version so things do not break.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
