I was looking around on Github a little bit, and could not help but notice that almost all peer-to-peer projects seemed to have been discontinued for at least 5 years. Did all P2P projects die?

I think Gnutella protocols of the previous generation wouldn't survive due to privacy issues. Much of the world is behind NAT today, which makes P2P difficult without hacks like WebRTC relays.
There are a number of distributed applications and protocols out there: ZeroNet, FreeNet, Mastodon/Pleroma/PeerTube (ActivityPub), I2P, IPFS, etc.
