This server is called UneasyVanilla and it is a semi anarchy vanilla world. It tries to stay close to the original Minecraft vision and it has a world that is over four years old.
When you first join you spawn in a totally wrecked area. Spawn is full of lavacasts and grief which kind of looks like a maze. You have to escape this mess and then you can go explore and make bases anywhere.
The server mixes anarchy style freedom with survival gameplay. There are still some rules so it is not total chaos. The rules seem mostly about keeping the server fair and running well and stopping cheaters.
The staff are active and they focus on banning cheaters and protecting the performance of the server. Because of that the world feels dangerous but not ruined by hacks.
The community feels like a tight group that likes a relaxed but risky survival style. You can find random encounters with other players while exploring. You can team up with people start alliances or just test your survival skills and build big projects.
If you want a long running vanilla world that is rough around the edges and not super safe UneasyVanilla is made for that.

Modded Squad PvP With Weekly Events
Frontline Combat is a modded team based pvp server that feels like squads fighting in a battlefield style match.
It runs regular events every week and they try to make each one better than the last. They also make their own custom mods and content so the server can keep improving.
It is Java only and they are trying to grow the player base so more people can join the fights.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCrown SMP Survival With Choice PvP
I found Crown SMP and it is a new Java 1.21.8+ server that is looking for players and staff.
The big thing here is player choice PvP. You can toggle PvP in the survival world so you can build and chill. There is also a dedicated PvP world where combat is forced so you can go fight when you want that risk vs reward feeling.
Survival uses land claims so your builds stay protected. If land is unclaimed it is fair game so claiming matters and it feels like smart survival rules.
There is a massive quest system with over 10000 quests. It is gameplay driven so you can explore grind and finish objectives at your own pace.
You can also use jobs to earn money from mining farming building and more. It has leveling prestiges and long term progression for casuals and grinders.
The economy is balanced with player run chest shops and trading. There are also server shops that are tuned to not ruin everything.
Extra stuff includes a mob arena with scalable rewards custom enchants and redstone powered flight that uses fuel. There are cosmetic focused rewards too. The server has a survival world and a PvP arena world.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPVanilla Nations War and Diplomacy 1.21.1
RevsMC is a vanilla Minecraft 1.21.1 nations server that is launching this Tuesday at 4:00 PM Central.

There is an economy based on trade and cooperation and nations can work out diplomacy. Groups can make alliances fight over territory or go to war with rivals.

I found a Minecraft anarchy server that is all about chaos and doing whatever you want.
The world is only 2500×2500 so everyone is forced close together and it makes fights and raids happen a lot.
It is made to be fun and messy and you can jump in and just try to survive.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPLumenor Semi Vanilla Nations Whitelist
