This is a bad take. You are asking for the forum and sub forum/tag approach. A community that small will simply not be engaged with frequently enough to avoid seeming “abandoned”. This is exactly the set of circumstances that led to content aggregation sites like Reddit.

Sub-forums are a usability nightmare, but reddit already solved the sub-forum issue. You would be showed content in a flattened manner, but in the hierarchy where the closest to you is shown first.
