Not really new but I'm all in self-hosting, decentralization, privacy and original web owned by individuals rather than big corp. I never manage to get drowned in any social media trends or platform.

I really like Zola https://www.getzola.org/

Love the looks of Zola, have you used it for a personal project yet?

Also, I'm a fan of the concept of decentralization, but I dislike how much it is now associated with the "crypto-bro" demo. Have you seen any projects capitalize on this new wave of decentralization while staying clear of the "Web3" side of the internet?

I use it (Zola) for my personal humble blog https://undeadalien.xyz Disclosure: It's in Romanian, no cookies, no JS, no trackers

Beaker Browser https://beakerbrowser.com/ seems dead, loved the concept but it's no longer updated

Now that you've asked, nope, didn't found anything with a clear future on the "Web3" side of the internet. Vast majority make use of crypto/blockchain and IMHO blockchain is anything but not decentralization.
