Not Laggy is a survival server that tries to feel like a modded pack while you stay on vanilla. It is all server side so you do not need to install anything. It is also built to avoid the usual lag so big farms and machines can keep running.
The main progression comes from Slimefun with a bunch of addons. You can build tech and automation and also get into magic stuff. There is even Galactifun so you can work toward space style endgame goals.
The world generation is changed across dimensions with new looking biomes and strange terrain. You can find natural structures like towers and ruins so exploring feels worth it.
It also has an easy land claim system so you can protect your builds. The server says it is not about OP kits or pay to win ranks. It is in beta so player feedback and suggestions matter.

ContinuumSMP Semi Vanilla Chaos Survival

ContinuumSMP is a new semi vanilla survival server that feels like hardmode chaos with lots of freedom. It is made for players who want to build raid fight and explore with very few limits.
It runs on Java 1.21+ and it also supports Bedrock. The server is professionally hosted and aims for persistent uptime with a world that does not reset.
Gameplay is mostly anarchy style with minimal rules. The main rule is do not crash the server. PvP is open and you can play how you want.
It uses very light plugins with anti cheat plus entity and packet protections. It is optimized with Folia so big farms lots of mobs and PvP can still run smoother.
The world has custom vanilla terrain generation and custom mob spawning so mobs show up closer and act more aggressive. Ender pearls are persistent so you keep them after death or logout. Nether roof access is disabled to help reduce lag.
There are still some basic standards. No harassment or hate content and do not spam chat or use bots macros or flood messages. Exploits that cause critical performance issues are not allowed and duplication and travel exploits are allowed if they do not hurt performance.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPBuild Verse Conquer Medieval Survival

Halcyon is a Lands PvP server that tries to feel like old school Minecraft survival but it still runs on the latest vanilla version 1.21.11. It is based in Australia and people also play from Europe the Americas and Asia so it feels pretty global.
The world is handmade and the rules are there to make things harder and slow down progress. Night cannot be skipped and healing is slow and only works in certain conditions. The server pushes you away from meta tricks and automation and more toward teamwork and being good at what you choose to do.
There is no teleportation so travel matters a lot. Players end up making roads waystations and even secret railways underground. Some crops and saplings only work in certain biomes so trading becomes important and regions start to feel different.
It does not force you into server lore. You can just start playing and your story grows as other players get involved. People have already been making art books myths and even weird superstitions from what happens in game.
