The New Life SMP is a survival server that tries really hard to feel like a real community and not just a world where everyone plays alone. When I joined it felt like every player mattered and people actually talked and worked together.
The server runs on version 1.21.10 for both Java and Bedrock. It has Simple Voice Chat so talking to other players is super easy and way more fun than just typing. The economy is run by the players so trading and shops feel important and not just extra stuff.
There are custom enchantments and balanced progression with armor upgrading templates so you still feel like you are moving forward but not instantly overpowered. No one is treated like they are better than anyone else and everyone is supposed to be on the same level.
They do monthly events and expand the world border so there is always something new to explore. The server is community driven and feels active and alive even outside the game.
Season 2 started recently so it is a good time to join early and grow with everyone from the start.

The Pack Server Safe Chill Community
The Pack is a Minecraft server you join through a discord invite so it feels a bit more private.
The vibe is friendly and the staff and players are said to be non judgmental. It sounds like a chill place where you can just play and talk without getting roasted.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPLifesteal SMP PVP Raiding Starts Feb 28
I found a Lifesteal SMP that is starting on February 28th. It is built around PVP and base raiding so people can fight and go after each other.
The lifesteal part is tied to PVP deaths. You only lose a heart when another player kills you so natural deaths are not as scary. They are looking for more players to join.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPOG Classic Prison Grind NO OP
MineSpot is a classic Prison server that feels like the old school grind. You start low and you work your way up through ranks by mining and playing smart.
It is built to be pay to progress and not pay to win. Ranks enchants and big milestones are meant to be earned with time and strategy.
You can unlock custom enchants and then prestige to keep pushing your progress. There are gangs to join and KOTH events to fight over plus quests to complete.
Minebombs help you mine faster and the economy is run by players. Leaderboards make it feel competitive and worth grinding for.
