VitaNova is a new semi vanilla SMP that just opened and it feels really fresh. The world is custom and still mostly untouched so there is a lot of room to explore and build your own area.
The server has a bunch of plugins that make normal survival more fun. There is a fishing plugin with custom fish and different rarities and there are fishing tournaments so you can compete against other players. There is also a lands plugin so you can claim land and keep your builds and loot safe.
You can make money by using jobs and selling things in the auction house so there is an economy where you can earn and spend. There are also crates that are pretty easy to get so you can get some extra boosts while you play.
The community is growing and the server is trying to be a place where everyone feels welcome. It runs on version 1.21 and it is built around people working together building up the world and just enjoying Minecraft survival.
For the launch they are giving free items from a calendar command until the end of January so you can get a little head start when you join.

I found a post about someone trying to host a Minecraft Java server on 1.20.1 with Fabric.
They keep getting the wrong server jar when they download it and it ends up being a newer version instead. They also tried another link that just throws an XML error.
This is basically a help style setup post for anyone stuck on the 1.20.1 server jar problem.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPGOOMB SMP Season 2 Amplified Vanilla

GOOMB SMP is a vanilla survival server in Season 2 and it is set in an amplified world. The world reset about three months ago and a lot of players have already jumped in and started building bases.
At first the world border pushed everyone closer together. Now the border has expanded so there is more room for big plans and new bases. The End has been opened too and players kicked off an egg hunt event so people can interact and meet each other.
The community is super active with shop ads trading talk and lots of screenshots of the crazy terrain. Voice chats are often full of people just hanging out and talking about what they want to build next.
The rules are simple. Be respectful no hate speech or NSFW and keep things mature and drama free. No griefing stealing or unconsented PvP. Joining happens through an application and then you get whitelisted.
