CL (and Scheme and Clojure) is still used in production, by Big Corps©, small companies, solo devs, for old projets or new ones.

Google (ITA Software, used by travel search engines), Quantum Computing companies (HRL, Rigetti…), Ravenpack (big data analysis), SISCOG (metropolitan planning system), the ScoreCloud app (play your instrument, it writes the music score), Opus Modus (music composition), pgloader (from Python to CL), industrial-grade theorem prover, and so many more…

If you don't like long sequences of closing parentheses, you could try Lisp Butt Mode for Emacs: https://gitlab.com/marcowahl/lisp-butt-mode
The list of companies is taken from https://github.com/azzamsa/awesome-lisp-companies/ which is slightly more up to date.
For libraries, your link lists projects hosted on their Gitlab, so I'd refer to this one: https://github.com/CodyReichert/awesome-cl

Most of Lisp folks on the net talk about how homoiconic language is elegant, or how REPL makes development faster, or how useful Lisp is for automatic theorem prover etc etc but very rarely I see Lisp folks talk about system programming, unlike C/C++/Rust folks.
> I am looking for useful projects that do something useful for users who can't give a damn what language the project is written in.
the note taking app I use is a fairly popular clojurescript project, first thing that comes to mind. https://github.com/logseq/logseq
In general Clojure is pretty popular in particular on the backend. Nubank is I think primarily using Clojure, but Walmart, Atlassian and a bunch of other big companies do to.
How about Penpot? It's a Figma replacement written in Clojure.
https://github.com/penpot/penpot
Whimsical (commercial product) is also written in Clojure / Clojurescript.
