I fully understand where you are coming from, most survival servers out there have bad communities and economy and stuff that takes away from a classic Survival feel. I honestly had the same feelings and thoughts you did. To solve my issue i went out there and created a LGBTQ+ Vanilla feeling community SMP where there is 0 Economy, no paid ranks, and no cheated in items or anything. If you ever want to give Survival a chance again try my server i would be happy to see you and get your opinions.
