The Lab is a vanilla style SMP that just started a new season and this time it is all about skyblock. It feels like a pretty pure Minecraft experience because everything is still vanilla but they use a skyblock setup so the whole world is basically the void.
From what I saw they use some tweaks so that every resource in the game is still possible to get. So even though you start in the sky you can still work toward getting all the normal stuff over time. The focus seems to be on building up from almost nothing and creating a whole world together.
The server is running on version 1.21.11 and it is hosted in Germany. There is no world border right now so the world can expand as people play and explore.
The vibe is like a group of people who like vanilla survival but wanted a different challenge this season. You join up and slowly grow your sky island and help shape the server world with everyone else.

GildedAbyss is a new modded SMP that is all about the community and how everyone interacts with the world. Season 1 is not open yet and they want more players before it starts so you can help shape how the server will feel.
The world has tons of biomes because it uses Biomes o Plenty and Terralith so exploring actually feels fresh. There are special items you can get with certain methods and there are more ores that make progression feel different with new tools and weapons.
One of the coolest things is Ancestral Archetypes. You can pick a sub race in game and use its abilities to your advantage. There is also the Create mod so you can build all kinds of machines as long as they are reasonable.
The owner really wants suggestions and plans to add more stuff before the server officially opens. There will be a lot of events once the season begins and the goal is to make everything fun for the players.
You get whitelisted with a ticket system where you talk to the owner or a moderator. If they think you are a good fit you get added and can join in on the start of Season 1.

This is a Hermitcraft style Vanilla plus SMP that is made for 18 and older players. Season 3 just started so the world is still really fresh and most of it is not explored yet. Everyone is still building first bases and starting up shops so it feels like a busy new town.
The server uses proximity voice chat and it is required so you actually talk instead of just typing. It makes the world feel alive because you hear people when you run past their base or in caves.
There is a diamond based economy so players trade and make shops and try to become rich before everything is taken. It is not pay to win and it is focused on being fair and community driven.
The gameplay is Vanilla plus with small quality of life stuff like mob heads armor stand editing invisible item frames player riding and being able to sit. There is also Bluemap so you can see the world change over time and the dragon drops elytra when the end opens so everyone can get wings.
Right now the story is that the community all started on a big mushroom island and made a safe hub there.

North Survival is a semi vanilla server that feels simple but still has some helpful features. It is not overloaded with crazy plugins so you still get that normal Minecraft feeling but a bit smoother.
You can use villagers with easy clicking so trading and managing stuff is faster. There is RTP so you can find a building spot right away without walking forever. You can use TPA to teleport and play with your friends which makes it easier to stick together.
The server has a custom UI and a protected spawn so new players do not get messed with right away. It also runs on version 1.21.4 and supports all 1.21 clients so it is updated to the newest stuff.
From what I can see the performance is stable so it does not lag a lot and it seems focused on survival with PvP so you can build but also fight if you want.
