I am writing this from the Server Side swift conference. Despite what is said in the comments, I do not see a community waiting for Apple to push the server-side ecosystem further. What I see is a group of passionate people building plans to move the ecosystem forward. Yes, it is still easier to develop on MacOS than on Linux (but it is doable). Yes, having the async/await feature in the language sooner than later would help. However, the community seems healthy and the projects are interesting and well designed.

I'm using vapor on a production app and really enjoying the experience. I do see there is a lot of work to do in the community though. Where would one start out to help with the efforts?

I would start by both getting involved in the server part of the Swift forum (https://forums.swift.org/c/server), and by checking simple tickets you could help with on those projects Github.
