How about "email"?

Do people forget it's a common protocol that isn't monopolized by anyone and is the widest prevalent even today, perhaps because of it?

I don't think many people consider "email" to be a community in any meaningful way. The same way people don't consider physical mail, the telephone network or the internet as a whole a community.
