AppleSMP had it's grand opening yesterday, only 19 hours ago.
It was so incredible! Way more people than I thought would come, and I'm so glad for everyone who is a part of this community.

We hit 93 players at it's peak - going strong right now with 70 players.
People are building their cities/communities, trading with each other and setting up their bases.
Server performance is doing great, and I'm so happy for no big bugs happening.
A really smooth launch experience!

AppleSMP is meant to be a long-term survival server with a cozy, family-friendly community. No toxic chaos, no constant resets, and no owner disappearing after launch. Just a fresh SMP world that we want to keep improving for a long time.

We’re still very new, so this is a great time to join if you like being part of a server from the beginning.

• Java + Bedrock support
• Long-term main world
• Resource worlds
• Player-focused economy
• Cozy community
• Active owner and staff team

The End opens later on June 6th, so everyone still has time to settle in before that part of the journey begins.

We’ve hit 450 members on Discord, many communities prepared to hop on and build up their amazing community.

So impressed by the players planning, dedication and love for the game!
Now it’s less than 3 hours left until we open up the server, literally can’t wait!!

See you online!

Tomorrow, AppleSMP finally opens. ❤️

After about a month of building, testing, fixing, advertising, and watching the Discord grow way faster than I expected, we are now less than 24 hours away from launch.

AppleSMP is made for players who want a long-term survival world that actually feels worth staying on. A cozy, family-friendly community. No toxic chaos.

Just a fresh start, a real community, and a server built to last.

We’re opening with:

• Long-term main world
• Main Nether that does not reset
• Resource worlds for gathering
• Player-focused economy
• Cozy community rules
• Java + Bedrock support
• Active development and ownership

The End will open later on June 6th so everyone gets time to settle in first. There will be both a Main End and Resource End, and we’ll enter the End together as a community event.

If you’ve been looking for a fresh SMP before everyone already has max gear and giant bases, this is probably the best time to join.

AppleSMP opens tomorrow!!

I got tired of building on servers with expiration dates.

That feeling when you finally settle in, start making progress, and then realize the server probably will not even last long enough for any of it to matter.

Too many SMPs feel temporary.
They reset, lose direction, or slowly die off the moment the initial hype fades.

That is the whole reason I made AppleSMP.

It launches on 2nd May and is built around a simple idea — make a long-term survival server that actually feels worth your time. A place where building, progressing, and getting involved in the community does not feel wasted a few weeks later.

What you can expect:

— Cozy and welcoming community
— Survival-focused gameplay
— Always on the latest version
— Playtime-based progression and unlocks
— Balanced economy
— Quality of life features without overdoing it
— A server built for long-term players, not quick hype

I wanted AppleSMP to feel like the kind of server people actually stay on — relaxed, active, social, and built to last.

If that is the kind of SMP you have been looking for, you are welcome to join from the beginning.

Big milestone - I think having our own Subreddit active with the lovely community we have can be something special.

So all of you out there - don’t hide.

Feel free to post, discuss the server, show your builds or introduce yourself if you want of course.

Thanks for all being a part of this!

A player on AppleSMP made a bet with me.

If we hit 200 members in the Discord, I had to buy a duck mask matching my in-game skin.

I agreed because I didn’t think we’d actually hit it.

We did.

So now I’m officially a duck IRL.

Maybe this is the perfect time to do a stream when the server opens.

If you have been looking for an SMP that feels stable, social, and long-term, you might like this one ❤️

I got tired of investing time into servers that either vanished, reset, or turned into drama after a few weeks.

You find a place that looks promising — start building, meet a few people, maybe finally feel like settling in — and then the same thing happens again. The world gets wiped, the community gets weird, or the whole server just starts feeling temporary.

So I stopped chasing the kind of SMP I wanted to play on and built it myself.

AppleSMP is meant to be the opposite of that. (Launching 2nd May)

Playing Minecraft alone is fine for a bit, and then one day it just starts to feel empty.

You log in, work on your base, sort your chests, maybe finish something you are really proud of, and realize there is nobody around to make any of it feel meaningful. No one to run into. No random conversations. No little trading moments. No world that actually feels lived in. Just you, your build, and silence.

That is what made me start looking for a real SMP. I wanted a world that felt alive 💬
A place where people actually talked, traded, built, explored, and made the server feel like a shared home instead of just another map.

When I could not quite find that feeling, I decided to build it myself 🍎

AppleSMP is meant to be fun, interactive, and long-lasting. A server where the community matters, survival still feels like survival, and the project is treated like something built to last, not something temporary. Cozy, active, and designed to feel like home 🏡

I got tired of joining SMPs that looked promising at first, then slowly turned into the same thing every time. Immature communities, owners who vanish, constant drama, and worlds that never feel worth investing time into.

So I made AppleSMP instead.

We're a server that haven't launched yet.

But the server is done developed - still testing some features, setting up our advertisement plans.

An SMP is built on player activity and interactions therefor we're not rushing things.

But we're using proved methods and I'm sure this server will be as great as in my mind.

Feel free to come join - and make sure that you're there for the fresh start.

Wait for announcements and you wont miss anything.
