I think that fewer people are writing DH-era fic because a lot of fans were dissatisfied with the book.
As for post-DH, I've found a number of good gen stories via genfic_hogwarts. There's not a ton of stuff listed there, but there's enough to whet your appetite. I think I've also seen some post-DH gen up at omniocular, but not as much.
There's some shippy stuff up that I've seen on recletters and newsletters, but mostly AU and slash. I'm not a slasher and AU only occasionally interests me, so I haven't checked much of it out.
But I agree that there's not much DH and post-DH era canon shippy stuff (at least not that I've seen). I mostly frequent R/T communities, and people there either focus on pre-DH or AU (for obvious reasons). So I don't know if the Ron/Hermione and Harry/Ginny people are writing much, but I certainly haven't seen it.
Plus, I haven't seen nearly enough reconstruction fics. I don't just want to read about the characters and their relationships--I'd like to see people's takes on how the Wizarding World is rebuilt, and how they rise from the loss and chaos to move forward.
So why haven't I written any of that? Lack of time. I have one old WIP that I still am trying to finish, plus, now that the excitement of the new canon has past I'm spending much more time on my original writing goals. I haven't migrated to any new fandoms, nor do I plan on it, but I kind of understand why there's been a lull.
I've written 2 Neville centric fics with the new canon (one during DH, one during his time as Professor at Hogwarts) and one explaining-Remus-During-DH fic, but that's all the DH-compliant stuff that I've managed.
(Oh--I have seen an explosion of Marauder's era Snape/Lily since that became canon, but you might not be interested in that ;)).
