thepaperpilot , While looking into the small web, I came across the Tildeverse, which is a collection of sites that provide homepages and other services for each of its members, with a focus on being a tight knit community. Like look at this one site, and in particular it's "what's everyone up to" section: https://ctrl-c.club/
I think that's really cool, and it's the kind of communities I think the Internet needs more of.
