Personal blogs are back, should niche blogs be next?

Niche forums. Federated.

Does that actually exist? I know there are reddit type clones, but I'm yet to see anything that allows me to setup a niche server and only that.

Yeah, there quite a few. Like old-school phpBB is still around[1]. Or, take a look at the list on Wikipedia[2].

Not sure if you're looking for a hosted solution, though. A lot of those would involve you running your own server.

Discourse also has a (first-party) ActivityPub plugin now!
