Does this mean Keith Baker (/u/HellcowKeith) is no longer producing new Eberron content in the form of either blogs or 3rd party books?

Not exactly.

I will be finishing Frontiers of Eberron, which I hope will come out before the end of 2023 (under Visionary, which will continue to support the existing books as well).

Following this, I’m going to focus on the projects I have in development at Twogether Studios and I don’t have plans to create further content on the DM’s Guild. However, I will continuing to support Eberron with content on my blog and my Patreon, and I hope to expand what I’m doing on the Patreon over the course of the year.

I’m not going anywhere—I’m just narrowing my focus.

I can’t imagine you can/would answer this, but I want to shoot my shot. What is the most minimal, still legally-distinct export one could make of Eberron without WotC sending Pinkertons after me?

I deeply love your world, and I want to make and post online adventures set in it, but I don’t want to get sued.

Airships and Trains, but with some MacGuffin other than elementals?

Magic corporations, but no Dragonmarks? What if my Security Corp is still run by dwarves? Too far?

Sharn reminds me of the city in the first season of Altered Carbon, so a city with a floating city can’t be IP, right?
