Mobs

Mooshrooms only - no hostile mobs spawn naturally, ever
Monster spawners and raid spawns still work, so light is not the reason - it is biome-level

Structures

No structures generate naturally

Why go

Build a base with zero mob-proofing: phantoms and patrols can still visit, but nothing spawns on the island
Mooshroom farming for unlimited food
The ultimate hardcore-mode home base

Tips

Bring dirt and saplings: no grass or trees generate here, and mycelium cannot grow most crops.
Phantoms still spawn above you at night - sleep or carry a cat.
