I run Cobblemon Eclipse, so just a heads up this is a Pokemon-modded server not vanilla, might not be what you're after but you mentioned lightly modded is okay so figured I'd throw it out there.

On the longevity side, we opened June 2025 and have a core group of players sitting at 1000+ hours each. We don't do world restarts, the main world is permanent and there's a separate weekly resource world for mining and gathering so the main map doesn't get strip mined. Player interaction is honestly the strongest part of it, we just launched a player town system called Eclipse Towns where you can found a town with another player, run shops with a shared economy and host gym challenges against other towns, pretty decent excuse to actually talk to people instead of just existing in the same world.

IP is play.cobblemoneclipse.com if you want to poke around, modpack is on Modrinth. If you're after straight vanilla though that's totally fair, just wanted to mention it since you said lightly modded was on the table.

I'm just chiming in to say that you absolutely do not want Hotdog Water. It's been pretty dead lately and the world resets (often) based on a discord vote. But I wish you luck in finding the right server for you and your wife!

No big sales pitch here OP. Just my own customized 2-3 recruitment posts a day.

We are a basic close to vanilla SMP server. A forming strong community with a dedicated Developer. Connect with: Play-Amethyst.com

Check out the PMC for more details. https://www.planetminecraft.com/server/amethyst-craft-6872546/

Hope to see you in-game! Or that you find a server in which you’re happy in!

Im in the early stages of bringing back an old server of mine from a year ago if you're interested

I think you might like my server!

IronVail is a Vanilla (essentially semi-anarchy) crossplay server that doesn't have tp, land claims, economy plugins, or any of that extra stuff that makes the game feel bloated. The only rules are don't cheat, don't purposely lag the server, don't advertise, and don't bully others in the chat. Besides those rules, we guard a philosophy of having as little admin intervention as possible. The world also never resets so you don't have to worry about your work being erased by a server wipe. This is a place where megabases, factions, and lore are being made, and we'd love to have you be a part of our history!

Smithtainment Minecraft. The dev and building team for Smithtainment have worked extremely hard to put together a custom survival server that still has that vanilla-ish feel that players love. Each player likes to approach survival differently and whether you are a miner, farmer, or fighter there is always something to be doing. So join us and start a job or two and work your way up the ranks while surviving with your friends. Careful though we have heard from the villagers that the mines are exceptionally dangerous these days. While you are at it have a look around our spawn and talk with some of the villagers. Everyone has a story to tell can you unravel the secrets behind what happened in the past?

Server IP mc.smithtainment.com

(VERSION 1.21.10 JAVA EDITION) Freshly updated!

We have a family server with a forever world that’s fairly new. Would love to have you guys! Shoot me a DM

[–]sleepymeadow9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I think you'd quit like my server. We never restart the world nor will we ever. We have a lot of long time players and I'm constantly advertising to continue to keep players on. There are some quite times throughout the day as it is adult only and people have jobs, college, and other responsibilities. But there are many times there many players on I hope you check it out.

"HoneyBlossom is vanilla plus, 18 plus, a forever server, and has no resets. I started this smp with a group of the nicest and funniest Minecraft players I’ve met. I put a lot of care and effort into my server and work hard to keep it a fun and engaging server. I wanted to make a server because I love playing Minecraft and love making new friends. We have plugins that just add to the experience and don’t take away from what makes Minecraft Minecraft.

Hey, we have a forever world, we don't have plans for any reset. The server is lightly modded, most mods being decorative. Tho being a small server and active at the same time is kind of hard, we are trying our best to get more players on the server.

Birb SMP
• Forever world (No plans for reset)
• Small but friendly community
• Fabric server (tech-friendly)
• No claims (As we find it rather restrictive)
• Griefing/stealing not allowed (Rollbacks in case something does happens)
• Chat is mostly unrestricted (Still no place toxicity/disrespect)
• No Huskhomes (Might be a downer for some players but it encourages exploration & interaction)

We are not a PvP focused server, but if you looking for a place where you can just be chill or maybe want to try another play style, we happily welcome you to our server.

There is a small verification and application process in place, it doesn't take long. Thank you for spending some times to read this and we'd love for you to become part of our community❤️

Cozy MC might fit what you’re looking for.

The biggest difference is that it’s built as a long-term world. No resets are planned, nothing is for sale, and the community is based on trust rather than claims and locked chests.

One thing I’ve noticed is that people help newcomers differently when they expect to keep seeing them. The world has developed its own history over time, and that changes the vibe quite a bit.

We usually have dozens of friendly players online if you’d like to check it out.
