WhimsyWillow SMP is a small modded server that feels very community focused. It is on season 3 right now and this time everything is modded with mods that were picked by the players.
The world has over 100 biomes with lots of structures so there is always something new to explore. There is the Create mod so you can build cool machines and moving builds as long as they are reasonable. There are also extra ores and new tools and weapons so progression feels more exciting.
The server has a shop district and a nice spawn that the community keeps looking good. Players can make their own shops and sell whatever they want. There is a world map with Bluemap so you can see the world from above and plan where to go.
The owners really care about suggestions and balance. They want the server to feel fair and fun for everyone and they listen when people share ideas. They also run events every now and then to keep things active and there is even an event going on right now.
Everyone is welcome here and they are always looking for more people who want to hang out and have fun. To join you just apply for the whitelist with a short application after joining their community.

Bastion SMP 21+ Semi Vanilla Sanctuary
Bastion SMP is a fresh semi vanilla survival server made for adults who want a world that actually sticks around.
It is run by a 25 year old software engineer who handles the hosting and says the world file will stay safe and the server will stay up.
The server is whitelisted to keep griefers out and it is strictly 21+ so it stays mature and chill.
People vote together on quality of life stuff like home and tpa and the goal is to keep the core Minecraft feeling with basic anti grief help.
Rules are simple do not grief do not steal do not hack and do not be a jerk.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCanvasMC Is Live Join Now

NostalgiaCraft is a vanilla style SMP that feels like the old days where you just play with friends and build whatever you want.
It has rules against griefing and there is a protected spawn with active staff. The world has been running since 2020 and they say there are no resets so your builds are meant to stick around.
The map is huge with a 300k by 300k world. They keep it running smooth and talk about staying at 20 TPS on dedicated hardware.
The economy stays simple with player shops and trading and no plugin money. It is mostly vanilla plus with a few quality of life commands like sethome spawn and toggling phantoms.
You can join on both Java and Bedrock and it is updated to 1.21.11. They also use a graylist system so you can join fast but spawn is the safest area while the rest is normal survival with no griefing allowed.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCampfire SMP Cozy Vanilla Survival

Chill social vibesDiamond trade systemEstablished starter helpmature player baseshopping district hub
I found Banana Sandwich SMP and it is on Season 3 and it feels like a stable survival world now. They said they are about 1.5 months into the season so the early scramble is over and there is already good infrastructure.
It is Java 1.21.11 and proximity voice chat is required which makes it feel way more alive. The economy is diamond based and there is a busy shopping district plus a safe hub on a Mushroom Island.
The vibe is 18+ and more mature and chill and collaborative. They also use Bluemap so you can see the world change as people build.
They have some fun extras like invisible item frames custom armor stands and you can sit or ride too. It is zero pay to win and they said the dragon will drop elytra so it stays fair for everyone after the end opens in two weeks.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
