I agree that showing...
That sounds pretty reasonable!
I do wonder though if rewording "Find people to talk to or collaborate with by searching across the /about, /ideas and /now pages of 7487 personal websites." might help a bit? Maybe something more along the lines of
"Find new /ideas to discuss and collaborate on or even search for what's /new with people and what they're /about" to focus on the ideas coming first and are not just one of the tags of equal importance to search on with the others.
Why did you want to see a list of people's /now pages?
Just exploratory curiosity (I also tried /about and /ideas, but left that out for brevity). Being pretty unfamiliar with the idea of /ideas and /now pages I just wanted to see what they tended to be like and it seemed like a core part of the website given the name.
Given the focus on the ideas part I don't imagine this suggestion to be entirely relevant, but I had an idea about turning your logo header thing that links to your about page (which imo is kind of unintuitive) into the filter. Have it so that that only the current one (or ones?) are colored in and the others are desaturated. And potentially moving the "building open source, starting a community, etc" div/search suggestions to show with the hamburger filter button.
