Over the last few years, SMP servers have taken the Minecraft world by storm, making it possible for hundreds of people to play together. Their popularity has grown immensely due to the help of YouTubers and Twitch streamers like Clay "Dream," who founded the Dream SMP along with GeorgeNotFound, and the duo of Toby "Tubbo" Smith and Tom "TommyInnit" Simons, who founded the Origins SMP.
SMP is short for Survival Multiplayer. These servers enable a large number of people to play together in a single survival world. Players can explore the map together, build towns, villages and cities for groups to live in, interact with new players and make friends.
Unlike modded multiplayer servers or minigame servers like Hypixel and Mineplex, SMP servers are all about their vanilla survival vibe. With a very small number of plugins, players can experience the thrill and exhileration of a vanilla survival world along with a number of other players. With that in mind, this article will explain how to join SMP servers in 2022.

- Enter the name of the server, or designate a custom name for it in the "Server Name" tab.
- In the "Server Address" tab, enter the server address of the desired server.
